Statement I: A Wien bridge oscillator uses a non-inverting amplifier.

Statement II: A phase shift oscillator uses a non-inverting amplifier.

In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer.

  • A.Both Statement I and Statement II are incorrect
  • B.Statement I is incorrect but Statement II is correct
  • C.Statement I is correct but Statement II is incorrect
  • D.Both Statement I and Statement II are correct

Answer: C

The first is true and the second is false: the Wien network gives zero phase shift so a non-inverting stage completes the loop, while the phase shift network gives a hundred and eighty degrees and needs an inverting stage to supply the rest. Whether a network shifts by zero or by a half turn decides which kind of amplifier it must be paired with, and that pairing is the first thing to establish about any oscillator topology.
