So I built this. With some minor adjustments. From my previous experience with astable multivibrators, I know that capacitor size means a lot.
So I put 100uF instead of 1uF and I put a variable resistor, linear 1k, instead of R2 so I can control the rate of flashing.
It just happened that I had linear potentiometers 1k laying around so I figured. And what do you know it works!
I am quite new to ICs, I only just "understood" how op amp works.
Google didn't give me much results.
Can anybody help me a bit with understanding of what I built? Anybody can build this but I want an understanding.
You don't have to go IC level a lot, just a bit insight into this oscillator circuit.
Thank you
