Hi All,
Is anyone left who is:
1) Old enough to remember the Tetrode-based Van der Pol Oscillator
and
2) Young enough to remember what they knew ;-))
and
3) Knows if it has any application to a VTTC?
Thanks,
Matt D.
I'm old enough and I'm certainly aware of who van der Pol was, but never heard of this particular circuit. Do you have a schematic or a reference to where one can be found? I can't imagine it has much to offer compared to a simple triode oscillator.
