Abstract
Experimental confirmation has been made on a driven relaxation oscillator circuit, first presented by Van der Pol, of the periodadding route to chaos. The nonlinear element in the circuit is a neon bulb, modeled by a three-segment piecewise-linear current-controlled resistor. A simple nonlinear circuit model has been used to reproduce in simulations the experimentally-observed period-adding phenomenon.
