Abstract

A new electronically-controllable fully-uncoupled sinusoidal oscillator, employing four second generation current-controlled conveyors (CCCIIs) and two grounded capacitors, is presented. The oscillation frequency and condition of oscillation are totally uncoupled and electronically adjustable. The circuit has low sensitivities and a high frequency stability factor. SPICE simulation results confirm the validity of the proposed oscillators.
