A multivibrator is an electronic circuit used to implement a variety of simple two-state devices such as relaxation oscillators, timers, latches and flip-flops. The first multivibrator circuit, the as
A vacuum tube Abraham-Bloch multivibrator oscillator, France, 1920 (small box, left). Its harmonics are being used to calibrate a wavemeter (center).
An oscilloscope shot of the voltage of the collector (trace 1) and the base (trace 2) of a transistor in an BJT astable multivibrator. The emitter of the transistor in this example is connected to ground.
