This sine wave generator is adjustable between 15 Hz to 150 kHz. The circuit is basically a Wien-bridge oscillator, with multiple capacitor selection. Here is the schematic diagram: A stereo 10k potentiometer is used to control the frequency. The dashed line connecting these two potentiometers show that both potentiometer has single axis.

Sine wave oscillator can be implemented using Wien-Bridge oscillator like in our previous sine wave oscillator circuit, but now we present another method of generating sine wave signal. Using phase shifter, we can build a simple sine wave generator, as shown in the schematic diagram below: Sine wave oscillator using phase shifter has [...]

Waveform generator is very useful in electronic experiment and design. This circuit generate sine wave oscillation, but actually we can modify the circuit to generate triangle or square wave function. Lets see its schematic diagram first, here it is: The core of this waveform generator is MAX038. This integrated circuit chip gives complete [...]

PLL oscillator is used to get very stable frequency woth very low distortion of sine wave output. The stability is equal to crystal-based oscillator, and the low distortion level of the sine wave output is equal to LC based oscillator. The method of PLL control in PLL oscillator is done by adjusting the frequency of [...]

This is a simple sawtooth generator circuit. The advantages of this circuit are low cost and produces an auxiliary square wave at the same frequency. This circuit can be used to sweep the frequency of another generator. Here is the circuit : A voltage-controlled current source is formed by IC1 with R1 and [...]

Sawtooth wave oscillator is used in cathode ray tube deflection circuitry, in a PWM modulator, or in a analog to digital conversion. You can also use it in your own design, only your imagination can limit its application. Here is one example of the circuit: The frequency is determined by C1, R1, R2, [...]
