Interactive Quizzes

Engage in quick quizzes to reinforce what you've learned and check your comprehension.

Question 1

What is the role of positive feedback in oscillators?

  • A. It amplifies the output signal
  • B. It reduces distortion
  • C. It reinforces the input signal

πŸ’‘ Hint: Think about how echoes work as a form of feedback.

Question 2

Barkhausen's Criteria requires that the loop gain must be less than 1.

  • True
  • False

πŸ’‘ Hint: Refer back to the definition of Barkhausen's Criteria.

Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Given a hypothetical oscillator with a loop gain of 0.8, analyze how you could alter the circuit to meet Barkhausen's Criteria.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Consider modifying the gain stage components in your analysis.

Question 2

Create a simulation of an oscillator circuit and determine if it meets Barkhausen's Criteria. If it doesn't, suggest modifications.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Observe the output waveforms and measure the gain and phase shifts.
