• Afb = A
1 - Aβ
Theory of Sinusoidal Oscillation
• Afb = A
1 - Aβ
A is a large number: Gain
β is a fractional number: Feedback factor
• If we make Aβ =1
• Afb = infinity
• Afb = Vo / Vin = infinity
• Means Vo = infinity when Vin=0
• That is we get a signal at output
without an input. This is called OSCILLATOR

Transistor Oscillators
• Depending on the type of phase shifter circuit oscillators we have following
types of oscillators:
1. RC Oscillators
– Uses RC phase shifter network
– Low frequency oscillators
2. Wein bridge Oscillator
– Variable frequency oscillator
– By changing value of elements we can change value of frequency
3. Hartley oscillator
– Uses tank circuit (LC circuit ) with tapped inductor
– High frequency oscillators
4. Collpits Oscillator
– Uses tank circuit (LC circuit) with tapped capacitor
– More stable than hartley oscillator
5. Crystal Oscillator
– Uses crystal in feedback look
– High frequency oscillators
– Highest frequency stability (means frequency remains constant irrespecitve of surrounding
conditions)
RC Phase Shift Oscillator
Collpits Oscillator
Hartley Oscillator
Crystal Oscillator
RC Phase Shift Oscillator
•Amplifier provides output with a 1800 phase shift
the transistor is provided by an additional 180o phase-shift due to the transistor action.
Hence the signal which appears at the transistor's output will be amplified and will have
a net phase-shift of 360o.
Frequency of output waveform of
Hartley oscillator
Feedback ratio : β = L2 / L1
• with less self and mutual inductance within the tank circuit
At resonance
Crystal offers minimum impedance
And feeds the output signal to the input
There is a 180ophase shift making the feedback positive.
Series mode crystal oscillator
• To excite a crystal for operation in the series-resonant mode
– it may be connected as a series element in a feedback path,
– In this mode of operation the crystal impedance is the smallest and the amount of
positive feedback is the largest.
– Resistor R1, R2 and RE provide a voltage-divider stabilized dc bias circuit,
– the capacitor CE provides ac bypass of the emitter resistor Re
– the radio-frequency coil (RFC) provides for dc bias -while decoupling any ac signal on
the power lines from affecting the output signal.
– The voltage feedback signal from the collector to the base is maximum when the
crystal impedance is minimum (that is, The series-resonant mode).
– The coupling capacitor Cc has negligible impedance at the circuit operating frequency
but blocks any dc between collector and base.
– The circuit shown in figure is generally called the Pierce crystal. The resulting circuit
frequency of oscillations is set by the series resonant frequency of the crystal.
– Variations in supply voltage, transistor parameters, etc. have no effect on the circuit
operating frequency which is held stabilized by the crystal.
– The circuit frequency stability is set by the crystal frequency stability, which is good.
