Abstract: This paper presents a fully integrated enhanced swing Colpitts oscillator that operates from supply voltages below 4kT/q. Design equations considering the oscillation frequency and start-up ...

Junior Design final project: create metal detection system using off-the-shelf parts. Team consists of two Electrical Engineers (Georges Karam, Jonathan Fuentes (myself)) and three Computer Engineers ...

Abstract: This paper explores the robust design of Colpitts and Hartley oscillators. Considering the uncertainty and unmodelled dynamics for Colpitts and Hartley oscillators, the period and amplitude ...

If you’ve ever fumbled through circuit simulation and ended up with a flatline instead of a sine wave, this video from [saisri] might just be the fix. In this walkthrough she demonstrates simulating a ...

This project involves the design and implementation of a Colpitts oscillator circuit that generates a stable sinusoidal waveform. The circuit is built using an LC tank circuit with capacitive feedback ...

Crystal oscillators are fundamental components in modern electronic systems, providing the precise timing necessary for communication, computation, and sensor network operations. Recent advances in ...

Small inductance changes on the order of 0.01% can easily be sensed over a wide range with a simple circuit connected to a serial port (see the figure). Using a classic Colpitts oscillator interfaced ...

Having already examined the Colpitts oscillator, we now look at its first cousin, the Clapp oscillator. Please consider the following illustration in Figure 1. There is an R-L-C network of passive ...

A current-feedback amplifier is a well-known component with many uses. Its basic block diagram shows that its input stage is a voltage follower—in practice, a symmetrical emitter follower (Figure 1).
