Devices can exhibit negative resistance. Negative slope current vs. voltage Examples: tunnel diode, vacuum tube These were described by Van der Pol. Negative Resistance R. V. Jones, Harvard University
Assume an oscillating solution. Time varying amplitude V Slow time variation The equation for V follows from substitution and approximation. The steady state is based on the relative damping terms. Steady State
The amplitude term can be separated. Two coupled equations Detuning term d Locking coefficient l The detuning is roughly the frequency difference. For small driving force the locking coefficient depends on the relative damping. Frequency Locking
Relaxation Oscillator • The Van der Pol oscillator shows slow charge build up followed by a sudden discharge. • The oscillations are self sustaining, even without a driving force. Wolfram Mathworld
The phase portraits show convergence to a steady state. This is called a limit cycle. Limit Cycle next
