Op-Amp Colpitts Oscillator

high-frequency-colpitts-oscillator

Colpitts oscillator can be implemented using op-amp as long as we have an op-amp with proper bandwidth. Here is an example of such circuit: LT1190 or  LT1191 op-amps is used to serve as an excellent gain stages. Limiting the gain … Continue reading
