Comments:Producing low-distortion sine waves, this oscillator operates over the range 16 to 22000 Hz. The circuit is based on two articles that have appeared earlier in Wireless World - Roger Rosens' Phase -Shifting Oscillator , February 1982 pp. 38-41, and J. L. Linsley Hood's Wien-Bridge Oscillator with low harmonic distortion from May 1981 pp. 51-53.This design features the simplicity of the Rosens' circuit but avoids the use of a thermistor. Instead, oscillator stability is controlled by means of a common photo-resistor driven by a LED, as suggested in the Linsley Hood article.There is no settling time when the oscillator's frequency is changed and no bouncing of the output waveform. Use of an expensive and sometimes difficult to obtain thermistor is avoided.
Technical data:Output voltage:Sine wave, 1V RMS max. Total harmonic distortion @ 1V RMS output:Frequency Reading100Hz = 0.0035%300Hz = 0.0028%1kHz = 0.002 %3kHz = 0.002 %10kHz = 0.001 %
Notes:Any common photo-resistor and 5mm. red LED can be used, provided they are in close contact and enclosed in a light-proof small box. I used the metal screen of a small IF transformer for AM transistor radios sealed with black insulating tape.The 10K trimmer must be set to obtain a 1V RMS output.The circuit must be supplied by a + and - 15V dual regulated supply. Common 7815 and 7915 regulator ICs should be used for this purpose.
