Question 1

What is the oscillation frequency formula for a Hartley oscillator?

f0 = 2π(L1 + L2)C
f0 = L1 + L2 / C
f0 = 1/(LC)

💡 Hint: Think about how frequency relates to L and C.

Question 2

True or False - The Hartley oscillator requires a phase shift of 90 degrees for oscillation.

True
False

💡 Hint: Review the feedback condition for oscillators.
