Examples

1. Design the RC phase-shift oscillator of Fig. for f0 = 300 Hz

Solution

Assume C = 0.1 µF.

We know that,

Therefore,
To prevent the RC network from loading the amplifier, it is selected such that R1 > 10 R. Letting

R = 2.2 kΩ, we get R1 = 22 kΩ.

We know that, Rf = 29 R1. Therefore, Rf = 29 X 22 X 103 = 638 kΩ

2. Design a Wien Bridge oscillator of Fig. for f 0 = 2 kHz

Solution

We know that

Assume C = 0.05 µF.

Therefore,

Assuming R1 = 1.8 kW, we get Rf = 2 R1 = 2 X1.8 X103 = 3.6 kΩ

ª 3.9 kΩ (Standard value)
