Overview: CK1100 - OSCILLATOR BUILDING BLOCKS Oscillators are everywhere in electronics. They are a basic building block upon which the whole structure of electronics and computers is based. This kit looks at the 3 basic types of multivibrators (MV). They are designed to have zero, one or two stable states; the astable (the prefix 'a' means 'not') or free running MV, the monostable MV (also called the one-shot) and the flip-flop or bistable ('bi' means 2, bistable means 2 stable states.) In the flip-flop MV a trigger pulse or control signal is required to change from one state to the other. MV's use regenerative (positive) feedback; the active components present within the circuit operate as switches being alternately cutoff or driven into saturation. These circuits have now largely been replaced by timer ICs like the 555. (See Kit 111.) However, a basic understanding of them is still essential since they are still used in many circuits. This kit builds each of these three circuits and allows you to experiment with them. To understand how these circuits work will also make sure you have an understanding of resistors, capacitors, RC characteristics, the transistor as a switch and the light emitting diode (LED). ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS Components may be added to the PCB in any order. It is usually easier to add the smallest height components, the resistors, first. All the small-signal transistors are the same. Solder a 1/2" (10mm) length of wire which has been cut from the leads of the other components into the three holes marked Trigger, Set and Reset. Add two flying leads to the positive rail and to the negative rail using any spare insulated wire you have in your junk box. You will use these flying leads to touch the trigger, set & reset points to see what effect they have on the operation of the MV's.
