Q: What does the plot mean? A: Bode plots compare input-output signals, and are thus a representation of a system’s transfer function.

Using my Multisim SPICE tool to analyze an oscillator, I ran into a little bit of simulation trouble. My circuit was a simple Colpitts oscillator and the simulation showed that it would indeed ...

Redraw the circuit as here in Figure 1 with the definition of the voltage β. Figure 1: Op amp as a gain stage (Click on image to enlarge) Treating the gain setting resistors as a voltage divider ...
