[UPDATE#1] PROJECT: Astable Multivibrator w/Op-Amp

I am thrilled to post an update on the astable multivibrator project!

Recently, I acquired an assortment of 1% tolerance resistors which replaced the previous 5% tolerance resistors. I did not expect too much of a change from this, yet I was curious to see if there would be any visual improvement on the oscilloscope. Long story short, the resistors helped balance the positive and negative supply rail values from the dual power supply circuit. Other than that, most things appeared as it did before.

Previously, I used a polystyrene capacitor for the astable multivibrator.

NEW PROJECT: Astable Multivibrator w/Op-Amp

Project: Astable Multivibrator w/Op-Amp

Objective: To build an astable multivibrator circuit using passive elements and an operational amplifier.

Application/use: From this project, I hope to build a reliable and accurate square-wave generator.

Why: Since I am interested in analog electronics, I figured it would be worth-while to build my own waveform generator. I've been anxious to build an astable multi-vibrator since hearing about them in my electronics class. Thus, I thought this project would be a decent start.


The Waveworks Laboratory...is BACK!

That's right! It's back! I'm back! I really hope I didn't keep my nearly zero followers waiting too long! How long has it be...
