Abstract

This paper presents the special features of RC harmonic oscillation generators and their widespread use and in particular the quadrature generators which provide two output signals dephased at 90º or 270º. Quadrature generators can be classified as those with an aperiodic frequency-determining circuit or with a phase inverter group which are used to generate oscillations of one or more fixed frequencies. Studies of a three-stage quadrature RC generator circuit with operational amplifiers have been performed. The results obtained from the simulation and experimental studies performed are presented for the selected circuit. It can be assumed that the experimental and simulation results completely coincide to an accuracy of up to 20% for the amplitude of the generated signals and to the total accuracy for the generated frequency. Quadrature generators are very widely used in communication technology and, most importantly, in the structure of digital frequency, phase and quadrature-amplitude modulators and demodulators, in vector RLC meters and many other electronic circuits and devices in practice.
