It generates an oscillatory output signal without having any input source
A Wien bridge oscillator is a type of electronic oscillator that generates sine waves without having any input source. It can output a large range of frequencies. The bridge comprises four resistors and two capacitors. The circuit is based on a network originally developed by Max Wien in 1891. At that time, Wien did not have a means of developing electronic gain so a workable oscillator could not be realized. The modern circuit is derived from William Hewlett's 1939 Stanford University master's degree thesis. Hewlett, along with David Packard co-founded Hewlett-Packard. Their first product was the HP 200A, a precision sine wave oscillator based on the Wien bridge. The 200A is a classic instrument known for its low distortion. The frequency of oscillation is given by:
In an RC phase shift oscillator, one emitter follower stage is typically used to provide the required phase shift. In a Wien bridge oscillator, two emitter followers are used to achieve the required feedback and oscillation.
Change one or more of the values of the inductance or capacitance of one or more of its legs.
A Wien-bridge oscillator generates a sinusoidal waveform using an op-amp and a feedback network with both resistors and capacitors, while a phase-shift oscillator uses an RC network to introduce phase shifts in the feedback path to generate oscillations. Wien-bridge oscillators are typically used for audio frequency applications, whereas phase-shift oscillators are commonly used for higher frequency applications.
To produce a pure sine wave using a Wien bridge oscillator, you need to configure the circuit with a combination of resistors and capacitors that form a feedback loop. The Wien bridge provides positive and negative feedback, allowing for oscillation when the gain is slightly above one, typically achieved with a variable resistor for automatic gain control. As the circuit stabilizes, it generates a smooth sine wave output at a specific frequency determined by the RC components. Fine-tuning the variable resistor allows for maintaining stable oscillations and ensuring the output remains a pure sine wave.
