Chaos in electronic circuits

Article Abstract:

"There is no reason why oscillation should always be periodic. There are low order deterministic systems which show unpredictable behavior and which can produce determined noise." Evidence for these two statements comes from simple electronic circuits which are so easy to build that the "chaotic" system may be seen and heard. Three circuits; the double scroll, folded torus, and driven R-L-Diode, may be built and allow one to confirm observation by computer simulation, and rigorously prove that the circuit is chaotic. These circuits are not analog computers, since both the voltage and current or each circuit element are important in the overall dynamics.

Electrical circuits with chaotic behavior

Article Abstract:

Irregular behavior of simple electrical circuits with regular nonlinear elements may occur. This is known as chaotic behavior, although many engineers are unaware of this and misinterpret the behavior as external noise. The evidence given for chaotic behavior of electrical circuits comes from laboratory experiments, computer simulations, and mathematical proofs.

Principles of Operation and Analysis of Switched-Capacitor Circuits

Article Abstract:

Several methods are used for the analysis of switched-capacitor networks (SCN). In SCN's the voltages can be found by throwing switches using charge conversion, KVL, the q-v relations and the gain of each voltage-controlled voltage source. Principles of operation of SCNs are discussed with analysis techniques. A circuit diagram of an SCN is included.
