  2. Blocking oscillator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blocking_oscillator

    A blocking oscillator (sometimes called a pulse oscillator) is a simple configuration of discrete electronic components which can produce a free-running signal, requiring only a resistor, a transformer, and one amplifying element such as a transistor or vacuum tube.

  3. Frequency-locked loop - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frequency-locked_loop

    This circuit compares the frequency of a controlled oscillator to the reference, automatically raising or lowering the frequency of the oscillator until its frequency (but not necessarily its phase) is matched to that of the reference. A frequency-locked loop is an example of a control system using negative feedback. Frequency-lock loops are ...

    BBFuino come with the ATmega328 controller, loaded with Optiboot (Arduino UNO's bootloader), compatible with Arduino IDE and sample code, design to fit breadboard for prototyping and learning, lower down the cost by taking out the USB to UART IC, so the board has the basic component to operate.

  5. Talk:Blocking oscillator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Blocking_oscillator

    Millman and Taub observe that "As a matter of fact, the only essential difference between the tuned oscillator and the blocking oscillator is in the tightness of coupling between the transformer windings." (p. 616) I will do some work on this article at some point or other. (I will need to review the analyses myself; they are non-trivial).

  6. Numerically controlled oscillator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Numerically_controlled...

    A numerically controlled oscillator (NCO) is a digital signal generator which creates a synchronous (i.e., clocked), discrete-time, discrete-valued representation of a waveform, usually sinusoidal. [1] NCOs are often used in conjunction with a digital-to-analog converter (DAC) at the output to create a direct digital synthesizer (DDS). [3]

  7. Joule thief - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joule_thief

    The joule thief is not a new concept. Basically, it adds an LED to the output of a self-oscillating voltage booster, which was patented many decades ago.. US Patent 1949383, [1] filed in 1930, "Electronic device", describes a vacuum tube based oscillator circuit to convert a low voltage into a high voltage.

  8. Squegging - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Squegging

    Squegging is a radio engineering term. It is a contraction of self-quenching.A squegging or self-blocking oscillator produces an intermittent or changing output signal. . Wildlife tags for birds and little mammals use squegging oscillat

  9. Frequency synthesizer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frequency_synthesizer

    A frequency synthesizer is an electronic circuit that generates a range of frequencies from a single reference frequency. Frequency synthesizers are used in devices such as radio receivers, televisions, mobile telephones, radiotelephones, walkie-talkies, CB radios, cable television converter boxes, satellite receivers, and GPS systems.
