In electronics, a relaxation oscillator is a nonlinear electronic oscillator circuit that produces a nonsinusoidal repetitive output signal, such as a triangle wave or square wave. The circuit consist
The blinking turn signal on some motor vehicles is generated by a simple relaxation oscillator powering a relay.
A vacuum tube Abraham-Bloch multivibrator relaxation oscillator, France, 1920 (small box, left). Its harmonics are being used to calibrate a wavemeter (center).
A voltage-controlled oscillator is an electronic oscillator whose oscillation frequency is controlled by a voltage input. The applied input voltage determines the instantaneous oscillation frequency.
