Oscillator Solutions and Calculations Guide

This document contains 8 practice problems about oscillators for an electrical engineering course. The problems cover topics like the gain and attenuation needed to sustain oscillation, how to start oscillation when power is turned on, calculating the output voltage of a lead-lag circuit at resonance, determining the resonant frequency of a lead-lag circuit, setting resistance values to achieve oscillation, explaining the purpose of a resistor in an oscillator circuit, calculating a resistor setting for a Wein-bridge oscillator, and finding the oscillation frequency of a Wein-bridge oscillator. The document provides figures to illustrate the oscillator circuits discussed in some of the problems.

Oscillators – part 1

1. If the voltage gain of the amplifier portion of an oscillator is 75, what


must be the attenuation of the feedback circuit to sustain the
oscillation?

2. Generally describe the change required in the oscillator of problem (3)


in order for oscillation to begin when the power is initially turned on?

3. A certain lead-lag circuit has a resonant frequency of 3.5 KHz. What


is the rms output voltage if an input signal with a frequency equal to
resonant frequency and with an rms value of 2.2V is applied to the
input?

4. Calculate the resonant frequency of lead-lag circuit with
R1=R2=6.2KΩ and C1=C2=0.02μf?

5. Determine the necessary value of R2 in figure 1 so that circuit will


oscillate, neglect forward resistance of zener diodes (hint: the total
gain of the circuit must be 3 when the zener diode is conducting)?

6. Explain the purpose of R3 shown in figure1?

7. For wein-bridge oscillator shown in figure 2, calculate the setting for
Rf assuming the internal drain source resistance of JFET is 350Ω,
when oscillations are stable.
