Optoelectronic Oscillators: Recent and Emerging Trends Optoelectronic Oscillators: Recent and Emerging Trends
Optoelectronic Oscillators: Recent and Emerging Trends Optoelectronic Oscillators: Recent and Emerging Trends October 11, 2018 Afshin S. Daryoush(1), Ajay Poddar(2), Tianchi Sun(1), and Ulrich L. Rohde(2), Drexel University(1); Synergy Microwave(2) Highly stable oscillators are key components in many important applications where coherent processing is performed for improved detection. The optoelectronic oscillator (OEO) exhibits low phase noise at microwave and mmWave frequencies, which is attractive for applications such as synthetic aperture radar, space communications, navigation and meteorology, as well as for communications carriers operating at frequencies above 10 GHz, with the advent of high data rate wireless for high speed data transmission. The conventional OEO suffers from a large number of unwanted, closely-spaced oscillation modes, large size and thermal drift. State-of-the- art performance is reported for X- and K-Band OEO synthesizers incorporating a novel forced technique of self-injection locking, double self phase-locking. This technique reduces phase noise both close-in and far-away from the carrier, while suppressing side modes observed in standard OEOs. As an example, frequency synthesizers at X-Band (8 to 12 GHz) and K-Band (16 to 24 GHz) are demonstrated, typically exhibiting phase noise at 10 kHz offset from the carrier better than −138 and −128 dBc/Hz, respectively. A fully integrated version of a forced tunable low phase noise OEO is also being developed for 5G applications, featuring reduced size and power consumption, less sensitivity to environmental effects and low cost. Electronic oscillators generate low phase noise signals up to a few GHz but suffer phase noise degradation at higher frequencies, principally due to low Q-factor resonators. -
Multivibrator Circuits
Multivibrator Circuits Bistable multivibrators Multivibrators Circuits characterized by the existence of some well defined states, amongst which take place fast transitions, called switching processes. A switching process is a fast change in value of a current or a voltage, the fast process implying the existence of positive reaction loops, or negative resistances. The switching can be triggered from outside, by means of command signals, or from inside, by slow charge accumulation and the reaching of a critical state by certain electrical quantities in the circuit. Circuits have two, well defined states, which can be either stable or unstable A stable state is a state, in which the circuit, in absence of a driving signal, can remain for an unlimited period of time The circuit can remain in an unstable state only for a limited period of time, after which, in the absence of any exterior command signals, it switches into the other state. The multivibrator circuits can be grouped, according to their number of stable (steady) states, into: - flip-flops (bistable circuits) with both states being stable - monostable circuits , having a stable and an unstable state - astable circuits , with both states being unstable Flip-flop circuits The main feature of the flip-flop circuits is the existence of two stable states, in which the circuit may remain for a long time. The switching from one state to the other is triggered by command signals Flip flop: an example for a sequential circuit (a circuit with outputs that present logical values depending on a certain sequence of signals, that have previously existed in the circuit). -

Stave, B.Sc. A Thesis submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School, Marquette University, in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Science Milwaukee, Wisconsin August 2019 ABSTRACT ANALYSIS OF BJT COLPITTS OSCILLATORS – EMPIRICAL AND MATHEMATICAL METHODS FOR PREDICTING BEHAVIOR Nicholas J. Stave, B.Sc. Marquette University, 2019 Oscillator circuits perform two fundamental roles in wireless communication – the local oscillator for frequency shifting and the voltage-controlled oscillator for modulation and detection. The Colpitts oscillator is a common topology used for these applications. Because the oscillator must function as a component of a larger system, the ability to predict and control its output characteristics is necessary. Textbooks treating the circuit often omit analysis of output voltage amplitude and output resistance and the literature on the topic often focuses on gigahertz-frequency chip-based applications. Without extensive component and parasitics information, it is often difficult to make simulation software predictions agree with experimental oscillator results. The oscillator studied in this thesis is the bipolar junction Colpitts oscillator in the common-base configuration and the analysis is primarily experimental. The characteristics considered are output voltage amplitude, output resistance, and sinusoidal purity of the waveform. -

Experiment No: 14 ASTABLE MULTIVIBRATOR USING IC
Experiment No: 14 ASTABLE MULTIVIBRATOR USING IC 555 AIM To design and set up astable multivibrator of 1000 Hz frequency and 60% duty cycle using IC 555 THEORY IC 555 timer is an analog IC used for generating accurate time delay or oscillations. The entire circuit is usually housed in an 8-pin package as specified in figures 1 & 2 below. A series connection of three resistors inside the IC sets the reference voltage levels to the two 2 1 comparators at V and V , the output of these comparators setting or resetting the flip- 3 CC 3 CC flop unit. The output of the flip-flop circuit is then brought out through an output buffer stage. In the stable state the 푄 output of the flip-flop is high (ie Q low). This makes the output (pin 3) low because of the buffer which basically is an inverter.The flip-flop circuit also operates a transistor inside the IC, the transistor collector usually being driven low to discharge a timing capacitor connected at pin 7. The description of each pin s described below, Pin 1: (Ground): Supply ground is connected to this pin. Pin 2: (Trigger): This pin is used to give the trigger input in monostable multivibrator. When trigger of amplitude greater than (1/3)Vcc is applied to this terminal circuit switches to quasi-stable state. Pin 3: (Output) Pin 4 (Reset): This pin is used to reset the output irrespective of input. A logic low at this pin will reset output. For normal operation pin 4 is connected to Vcc. -

UNIVERSITY OF NEVADA, RENO Introduction to Quartz Resonator Based Electronic Oscillators and Development of Electronic Oscillators Using Inverted-Mesa Etched Quartz Resonators A thesis submitted on partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF SCIENCE IN ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING By Matthew B. Anthony Thesis Advisor Dr. Indira Chatterjee August 2009 Copyright by Matthew B. Anthony 2009 All Rights Reserved THE GRADUATE SCHOOL We recommend that the thesis prepared under our supervision by MATTHEW B. ANTHONY entitled Introduction To Quartz Resonator Based Electronic Oscillators And Development Of Electronic Oscillators Using Inverted-Mesa Etched Quartz Resonators be accepted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF SCIENCE Indira Chatterjee, Ph.D., Advisor Bruce P. Johnson, Ph.D., Committee Member Scott Talbot, M.S., Committee Member Ronald Phaneuf, Ph.D., Graduate School Representative Marsha H. Read, Ph. D., Associate Dean, Graduate School August, 2009 i ABSTRACT The current work is primarily focused on the topic of the advancement of low phase noise and low jitter quartz crystal based electronic oscillators to frequencies beyond those presently available using quartz resonators that are manufactured using the traditional method that processes the entire sample to a uniform thickness. The method of inverted-mesa etching allows the resonant part of the quartz sample to be made much thinner than the remainder of the sample – enabling higher resonant frequencies to be achieved. The current work will introduce and discuss the importance of phase noise and jitter in electronic oscillator applications such as wireless communication systems and sampled data systems. General oscillator and quartz resonator background will be provided to facilitate the understanding of the oscillator circuit used herein.
