Appearance
Sinusoidal Wave Oscillator
[edit | edit source]Consider a series circuit of L and C connected in series
Standing Wave Oscillator
[edit | edit source]The circuit of series L and C operates in resonance when the impedance of the two components cancel out
Circuit has the capability to generate Standing Wave oscillating at
Exponential Decay Sinusoidal Wave Oscillator
[edit | edit source]Consider circuit of RLC connected in series
When
The circuit has the ability to generate Exponenential Decreasing Amplitude Sinusoidal Wave
