A Simple Oscillator Circuit

This electronics video tutorial provides a simple way to create an oscillator circuit using a 6V battery, an inductor, a motor, a resistor and a multimeter to test it. By the way, the waveforms generated by small motors spinning fast tend to very spiked distorted waveforms. If you wish to generate a sine wave with this circuit, use a larger slow spinning motor with an additional capacitor connected in parallel with the resistor. I was able to generate a sine waveform using the large motor shown at a time stamp of 2:20 while using an inductor of 10 mH in place of the transformer and an additional 220 uF across a 1K resistor. The 220 uF resonated with the 10 mH inductor and the inductance of the motor creating a decent sine wave. It also served to filter out any high frequency spikes that may have been produced in this circuit.

We want your face reveal.

[@muppetpaster]

This would be so much clearer with an oscilloscope.....

[@PunmasterSTP]

Oscillator? More like awesome-lator, because your videos are great!

[@9IPbINCB3T]

Why is not motor in line with capacitor? Why would the same current flow both through motor and capacitor if they are in parralel connection? I cannot understand

[@flobbie87]

How is that simple? You use a motor.

[@AhmedAymanM]

Please tell me the name of the lrogram you draw with, and the namd of the method itself (black color page and colof changing pen)

[@gregkocher5352]

I think this is why the old AM radio stations had a motor in their circuits?

[@surendersingal2192]

Thank you for your slow talking explanation. Very thru n thru talk.

[@allilatif1600]

please make more electronics videos

[@hoofheartedicemelted296]

Thank you this answered a question I've been trying to answer for a while about internal resistance and inductors. Thank you.

[@lodoform9986]

This video is brilliant!

[@zaidhussain5206]

Thank you for sharing this idea

[@harishannarapu1614]

Thanks for your help

[@physicsmohamedtalat8125]

Thanks

[@kageman]

Awesome

[@aqeelshah5801]

Guys Hit like for face reveal that this man can take notice.

[@crispychickenwing]

thankq!!!!

[@youssefrahmo8465]

If I replace the motor with an inductor will that still make an oscillator circuit?

[@asmahoseini4393]

برو بیرون از این سابجکت.برو یک جای خلوت خودت رو رها کن که راحت بشی و زیاد به خودت فشار نیار خطرناک هست

[@ericneu1322]

very very BAD. Use a correct circuit with transistor or OpAmp !!!
