Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

Design a phase shift oscillator that operates at 5 kHz with a capacitor of 4.7 nF. What resistance values will be most suitable for the resistors used?

💡 Hint: Find R first, then decide how to configure multiple resistors to achieve this.

Challenge 2 Hard

A circuit you design is yielding oscillations at a range of frequencies. How might you modify the resistance or capacitance to approach a specific desired frequency?

💡 Hint: Test your modifications to see how they affect the output frequency!
