Basic Oscillator Circuit using Two Transistors

This is the schematic diagram of basic oscillator schema which using two transistors. When two transistors and a couple of passive components are connected as shown in the figure, the schema starts to oscillate. The frequency of oscillation can be adjusted by changing the values of either the resistor or the capacitor.

For easier experiment, you may replace the resistor with 10K potensiometer. By increasing its frequency to a suitably high level, it can be used to drive a speaker or a buzzer to produce an audio alarm note. By sufficiently reducing its frequency, the schema may be used to flash a LED as a warning indicator.
