WIEN-BRIDGE OSCILLATOR AS A LOW-FREQUENCY REFERENCE SOURCE,

Abstract

Design and performance of a Wien-bridge oscillator operating at 100 cps are presented. A frequency stability of .001 has been obtained over a temperature range from -55 to +85 C with a =20- percent supply voltage change. This is one order of magnitude better than the performance of oscillators preceding this design. The use of a highimpedance RC network and field-effect transistors led to a small-sized oscillator with low power consumption (1 mw). The performance of network components subjected to 20,000 g indicates that the stability will not be degraded under shock and vibration. (Author)
