Hihi 193,
Welcome to AAC.
Hint: What is the purpose the two 'isolating' diodes?

No idea. I don't know why is that switch there. I have the proteus simulation file for it, want me to put it here?What if instead of SW1 & Q3 there was an SW3 switching the emitter of Q1 to GND? Could you analyze that?
hi,It's my final project. I need to provide information of its working briefly and its equations. I'm seeing similarity to astable multi vibrator but I can't say how it works. Your help is appreciated
Really? Where would you put them then?It is a very simple multivibrator but its diodes are in the wrong places.
Forget about simulating it for now... Describe how an astable multivibrator works and then consider how the extra components impact on that...It's my final project. I need to provide information of its working briefly and its equations. I'm seeing similarity to astable multi vibrator but I can't say how it works. Your help is appreciated
But the different positions shown in article 1 fig 2 & 3 serve a very different purpose to the TS' example (also shown Fig 5 of article 1).
Links were very helpful thank you very much.Hello,
Both positions seem to be valid:

hi agu,Of course the circuit will not work if the switch does not turn on Q3 or if Q3 is not replaced with a wire.
Why doesn't the switch simply turn on the power supply +12V to the circuit instead of using Q3?
As the other member have already mentioned it won't work because the current path won't be provided for Q1. Yet, why Q3 and not a short circuit to ground?hi 193,
Would the circuit run if the Q3 transistor was removed from the circuit,?
