Circuits Designed by Dave Johnson, P.E. :
  • ULTRA PURE 125KHz SINE WAVE SIGNAL SOURCE
    For some RFID systems operating at 125KHz, a very low distortion signal source reference is needed.  The circuit shown on this page produces a 10-volt peak-to-peak signal into a 50-ohm load, with a distortion of only 0.01%.

Twin-T oscillator -  This circuit produces an extremely low distortion sine wave, in spite of the non-linear devices used for amplitude limiting (D1 and D2). The reason is first that distortion (harmonics) is fed to the minus input of the opamp with far less loss than to the plus input, severely attenuating them. Second, this oscillator rides a delicate....Designed by Andrew R. Morris  (added 09/05)
