it is the circuit that is responsible for producing oscillation.In hartley it is two inductors connected in series and a capacitor parallel to this series connection.Without tank oscillator tends to act as as an amplifier.

What is role of LC circuit in the hartley oscillator?

Self-tuning feedback


What is difference between series fed and shunt fed hartley oscillator?

The DC voltage for the amplifier (transistor or FET) runs for a series-fed oscillator through the inductance of the LC circuit. A shunt-fed oscillator uses a radio-frequency choke or a resistor to deliver DC voltage to the amplifier. For an oscillator the difference between serial-fed and shunt-fed is small. The choke resonance frequency can interact with the LC circuit resonance frequency. This problem happens only with shunt-fed. Furthermore series-fed needs less components. Therefore it is prefered for (low power) oscillators. The output circuit of an amp can be series-fed or shunt-fed, too. The additional DC current through the coil will drive a iron or ferrite core earlier into saturation. This is an disadvantage of serial-fed. At a high-voltage tube RF amp with say 2000V DC voltage, in the shunt-fed amp only the choke and the DC blocking capacity have to withstand the high voltage. This is an advantage of the shunt-fed solution.


What are the essential components of a feedback LC oscillator?

The essential components of a feedback LC oscillator include an inductor (L) and a capacitor (C) connected in a feedback loop, a gain element such as a transistor or amplifier to compensate for energy losses, and a feedback network to sustain oscillations by providing positive feedback. The LC tank circuit stores and exchanges energy between the inductor and capacitor to generate an oscillating signal at the resonant frequency of the tank circuit.


What is the difference between oscillator and feedback amplifier?

There are two differences: a) the amount of feedback you allow b) whether you wire a frequency-determining device into the circuit First things first: ANY amplifier circuit that uses feedback, which these days is most of 'em because feedback improves the quality of an amp's output, will oscillate if there's enough feedback. This poses a real problem because the more feedback you use, the better the amp sounds. Your challenge, therefore, is to make an amp that uses not quite enough feedback to oscillate. The other is equally critical. If you want oscillation you usually want it on a specific frequency. You can build an LC tank or a crystal into the circuit to determine the output frequency if you're building an oscillator; if you're building an amp you wouldn't do this.


How the charge oscillate in LC circuit?

If a charged capacitor is connected across an inductor, charge will start to flow through the inductor, building up a magnetic field around it, and reducing the voltage on the capacitor. Eventually all the charge on the capacitor will be gone and the voltage across it will reach zero. However, the current will continue, because inductors resist changes in current, and energy to keep it flowing is extracted from the magnetic field, which will begin to decline. The current will begin to charge the capacitor with a voltage of opposite polarity to its original charge. When the magnetic field is completely dissipated the current will stop and the charge will again be stored in the capacitor, with the opposite polarity as before. Then the cycle will begin again, with the current flowing in the opposite direction through the inductor.The charge flows back and forth between the plates of the capacitor, through the inductor. The energy oscillates back and forth between the capacitor and the inductor until (if not replenished by power from an external circuit) internal resistance makes the oscillations die out. Its action, known mathematically as a harmonic oscillator, is similar to a pendulum swinging back and forth, or water sloshing back and forth in a tank. For this reason the circuit is also called a tank circuit. The oscillation frequency is determined by the capacitance and inductance values used. In typical tuned circuits in electronic equipment the oscillations are very fast, thousands to millions of times per second.

How op amp works as oscillator?

oscillator needs positive feedback in order to produce the undamped oscillations .This is done with help of he amplifier circuit.The oscillations are produced by the tank circuit cosisting of inductor and capacitor.The output of this tank circuit is fedback to the transistor which amplifies it and give back to the tank circuit input.If the gain of the circuit consisting of tank circuit and amplifier is more than one and the feedback given to tank circuit is in phase then we get undamped scillations as the output.

What are the Difference between RC oscillator And LC oscillator?

The difference between an RC and LC is that the frequency - determining device in the RC oscillator is not a tank circuit. LC can operate with A or C biasing, while RC can only operate with A.


How does a Colpitts oscillator work?

A Colpitts oscillator is the electrical dual of a Hartley oscillator. In the Colpitts circuit, two capacitors and one inductor determine the frequency of oscillation. The feedback needed for oscillation is taken from a voltage divider made by the two capacitors, where in the Hartley circuit the feedback is taken from a voltage divider made by two inductors (or a tapped single inductor). (Note: the capacitor can be a variable device by using a varactor). Oscillation frequency The ideal frequency of oscillation for the circuit is given by the equation: where the series combination of C1 and C2 creates the effective capacitance of the LC tank. Real circuits will oscillate at a slightly lower frequency due to junction capacitances of the transistor and possibly other stray capacitances


What is the Circuit diagram of tank circuit of oscillator?

A tank circuit in an oscillator typically consists of an inductor (L) and a capacitor (C) connected in parallel or series. In a parallel configuration, the inductor and capacitor resonate at a specific frequency, allowing the circuit to oscillate. The circuit may include an active component, like a transistor or operational amplifier, to provide gain and sustain oscillations. The resonant frequency (f) is determined by the values of L and C, given by the formula ( f = \frac{1}{2\pi\sqrt{LC}} ).


What is an RC oscillator?

AnswerOscillator that uses two passive elements for the timing. Namely resistor and capacitor.AnswerIt's an oscillator whose frequency-determining "tank" does not contain an inductive element, like a coil. These are good for extremely low frequencies--down to a few Hertz--but LC oscillators are better at radio frequencies.AnswerAn Rc oscillator is an oscillator that uses 3 or more phase shift networks, ( a network of a capacitor and resistor) as a frequency determining network (tank circuit) and a transistor to amplify that output, that only allows a certain frequency through by only letting the frequency that is able to shift 180 degrees out of phase through. And also has a feedback network from the collector (of the transistor) circuit, to compensate for circuit loss to oscillation.

How does a transistor act as a oscillator?

A: actually any active components will oscillate with positive feedback A transistor can be used as an amplifier along with an LC tank circuit to form an oscillator; it is an active device (as LIBURNO states) which will amplify the feedback signal coming out of the LC tank circuit. The tank circuit has a natural resonant frequency, meaning the L and C together will try to generate a specific frequency; this is then fed back into the input of the transistor amplifier, and the output is fed to the LC tank circuit exacerbating this oscillation until it reaches its' maximum level. An inverting amplifier can be used similarly; the output is fed to the input; this will cause the output to change as fast as the amplifier can. The frequency of this design is much harder to control, but potentially higher. Also, without the LC tank, the output voltage will remain lower.


How a Oscillator works without giving any input signal?

just like the simple oscillator that v c in our normal life which is a Pendulum. in pendulum there is the difference between the potential energy and then the theory of inertia is applied similarly it happens with the case in the electronics whr the +Vcc voltage is there and its difference with the ground helps in oscillation using the tank circuit. shri krishan sharma
