The astable multivibrator I found in wikipedia and also my college material are the same, which is on the left hand side of the picture. While for the schematic at the right hand side, I found it from the example of LTSpice. I would say because it`s drawn wrongly, the correct circuit is the one on the left. It may perhaps work, but it`s not a go

od example, and it`s not something I would consider. The circuit on the left is prone to not starting to oscillate, especially in simulations. The circuit on the right has DC negative feedback, which keeps the transistors out of saturation except right after they switch ON. This allows oscillation to start more readily, especially in simulations. There are ways of getting the circuit on the left to start in simulation. In practice, it will generally start, due to component mismatches and the startup transients introduced by the power supply turn-on step. I agree that the circuit on the right is not as useful as the other one. Since the transistors don`t saturate, you won`t get good logic "0" levels, although there are relatively simple ways to get around this. The wire on the capacitor that connects to a transistor`s base is driven to a negative voltage when the other transistor conducts. Then the capacitor discharges into R2. Since the max reverse voltage on a silicon transistor`s emitter-base junction is only about 5V then a small supply voltage is needed or protection diodes should be used in series with the emitters. When C1 is fully charged, Q1 is turned on. C1 acts as a battery and its -ve side is connected to the base of Q2, that`s why the potential at the base of Q2 is -ve when C1 starts discharging, right Then R3 charges or discharges C2 enough to turn on Q1 a little and the negative end of C1 drives the base of Q2...
This project fits more for custom made battery casing that can have more space to hide things inside. This switch with few alterations can be used for any other project as well but is designed based on e-bike needs! This project use a clever functionality of....
The circuit described here uses ultrasonic oscillations and operates based on the propagation velocity of these oscillations in the air. Thus, we can easily determine the distance of two points if the time within which the wave travels this distance is....
Sometimes the precious metals are hidden too deep and are not detected except with complicated devices. In many cases, however, small pieces of precious metal buried near the surface can be detected by relatively simple means. Everyone is very attractive to....
Many times for various reasons we forget or can not water the plants that we have in our homes. And many humidity sensors units just notify us with a beeping sound or with a flashing light, that the pot needs watering. But what if we are away from home? This....
The principle behind a metal detector is really very simple. Proof of this is the circuit that follows, in which it proves that the construction of a metal detector can be done in the minute, with few components that we find very easily everywhere. With the....
The sub-harmonic bass generator is a sound producing unit for guitars. The sound it produces looks very much like that of the bass guitar. The octave generator is sometimes quite unusual since it does not produce any of the usual ways of coloring the sound,....
In the past the sounding (sea bottom measurement) was done with the "bullet", that is, with a heavy lead object that the seamen plucked into the sea hung from a calibrated rope. As soon as the "bullet" reached the bottom, the depth appeared directly from the....
This Amplifier was designed to have the following specifications: Distortion less than 0.1% at full power of 100W even at 20KHz. Power has to be attributed to an extended bandwidth. The output transistors must be protected against short circuits. The power....
A series of LEDs serve to alert the gardener when plants need water. Using two conventional digital integrated LEDs and a series of LEDs, we make a very useful device for gardening. The device detects the amount of water in the pot and alerts the grower.....
