Sometimes the best projects are the simple, quick hits. Easily designed, fast to build, and bonus points for working right the first time. Such projects very often lead to bigger and better things, ...

Using my Multisim SPICE tool to analyze an oscillator, I ran into a little bit of simulation trouble. My circuit was a simple Colpitts oscillator and the simulation showed that it would indeed ...

Consider the following illustration in Figure 1 of what we shall see is an oscillator, specifically, a Colpitts oscillator. Figure 1 The Colpitts oscillator where the passive components are arranged ...

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