Project #PC63

Electronic Sound PC

OBJECTIVE: To view the output of an oscillator circuit.

Build the circuit and try the settings shown. Press the press switch
to lower the frequency of the signal by increasing the capacitance
in the oscillator. You can replace the 0.1mF capacitor C2 with the
10mF

capacitor C3 (“+” on the right) to further lower the frequency

of the tone. You may try other settings to zoom in or look at the
frequency spectrum.

Project #PC64

Replace the 100KW resistor R5 with the 10KW resistor R4, place the
0.1mF

capacitor back in the circuit as before. Now you change the

frequency by changing the resistance in the oscillator.
