Abstract :
A new current conveyor (CC) based minimum-component oscillator structure has been proposed which provides the following advantageous features over the previously known minimum-component designs: (i) noninteracting control of frequency of oscillation through a single grounded resistor, (ii) easy convertibility into a voltage-controlled oscillator (iii) use of two grounded capacitors as preferred for IC implementation, (iv) availability of a buffered output, and (v) very good frequency stability.
