The oscillations, on the other hand, will die out when
. From (17) and (18) it may be seen that the frequency of os-
cillations can be controlled by the grounded resistor without
affecting the condition of oscillations. The value of should,
however, be kept less than or equal to .
However for a practical CCII embodied in AD844 the ter-
minal properties are conveniently described by

IV. CONCLUSION
A new topology for the variable frequency sinusoidal oscil-
lation using IC AD844 with grounded capacitors is presented.
The proposed circuit allows independent control of the oscil-
lation condition and oscillation frequency. The oscillation fre-
quency is controlled with a single grounded resistance which in
turn allows digital control of the frequency if weighted resistors
are used. It is shown that the experimental results conform well
with the simulation and theoretical conclusions.
