Two-port oscillators based on three impedance structure

Abstract

This paper investigates the general analysis of the three impedance common B oscillators based on two port network. The concept is applied for 12 different impedance structures to obtain a second order oscillator where the condition and the frequency of oscillation are studied for each case. Then three special cases of two-port networks whose transmission matrices contain two non-zero elements are studied which represent MOS, BJT and gyrator circuits where six cases only can be adapted to have oscillation using gyrators. The effect on non-idealities of the current conveyor used to build gyrator on the condition and the frequency of oscillation is also studied. Finally three different cases are validated using the circuit simulations which match the theoretical study.
