Theory:
G
An oscillator is a circuit, which generates ac output signal without giving any input ac
E
signal. This circuit is usually applied for audio frequencies only. The basic requirement for an
EC
oscillator is positive feedback.

An oscillator consists of an amplifier and a feedback network. Active device i.e. Op
Amp is used as an amplifier. Passive components such as R-C or L-C combinations are used as
feed back network.
C
To start the oscillation with the constant amplitude, positive feedback is not the only
sufficient condition. Oscillator circuit must satisfy the following two conditions known as
LI
Barkhausen conditions:
1. The first condition is that the magnitude of the loop gain (A) = 1 where
A = Amplifier gain
= Feedback gain.
2. The second condition is that the phase shift around the loop must be 360 or 0.

RC Phase Shift Oscillator:

Phase-shift oscillator is a simple electronic oscillator. It contains an inverting amplifier,
and a feedback filter which 'shifts' the phase of the amplifier output by 180 degrees at the
oscillation frequency. The filter produces a phase shift that increases with frequency. It must
have a maximum phase shift of considerably greater than 180 at high frequencies, so that the
phase shift at the desired oscillation frequency is 180.
The most common way of achieving this kind of filter is using three identical cascaded
resistor-capacitor filters, which together produce a phase shift of zero at low frequencies, and
270 degrees at high frequencies. At the oscillation frequency each filter produces a phase shift of
IT
60 degrees and the whole filter circuit produces a phase shift of 180 degrees.

Wein Bridge Oscillator:

A Wien bridge oscillator is a type of electronic oscillator that generates sine waves. It can
generate a large range of frequencies. The frequency of oscillation is given by: f= 1/2RC.
The Wien Bridge Oscillator uses a feedback circuit consisting of a series RC circuit
connected with a parallel RC of the same component values producing a phase delay or phase
advance circuit depending upon the frequency. At the resonant frequency fr the phase shift is 0.
