  • Abstract
    A sinusoidal oscillator whose frequency is linearly related to an input control current is described. A variable inductor is realised using a fixed inductor and a variable-gain current-controlled current source. The variable inductor is then used in an LC oscillator circuit. Linear frequency variation with control current is obtained in a temperature-independent manner by using a function generator. Frequency variation over a range of 1:3 is obtainable, with a linearity of better than 1%.
