Feedback and Gain

741 Open loop gain : 200,000 Gain with feedback Where is feedback factor Feedback may be Positive or Negative Wien Bridge oscillator utilizes positive voltage series feedback

Oscillator Operation

When positive feedback is used in an amplifier with closed loop gain |Af| >1 ,the amplifier acts as an oscillator No input signal is required to set an oscillator circuit into oscillations. When A>1 the noise voltage present in the circuit is amplified The closer A to 1. The purer the sinusoid produced.
