Good day all,
I did an experiment with the lookmumnocomputer avalanche oscillator as illustrated below.
I would like to understand the relationship between the potentiometer resistance and time constant/period value.
I tried patching the circuit on the breadboard and replace the circuit with a Light Dependent resistor.
A sawtooth output was obtained with a light resistance value of 2.5kOhms and a frequency of 7 Hz. However, despite that i am still unable to understand the relationship and operating principle.
Please assist.
Thanks
Faris
