Applications of Astable Multivibrator
1. The Astable Multivibrator circuit mainly used as a continuous wave generation circuit.
2. Astable Multivibrators are used in Frequency Modulation Circuits.
3. Astable Multivibrators are used in analog as well as digital timer Circuits.
4. They are also used in Voltage to Frequency converter circuits.
5. Astable Multivibrator circuit can generate also Square Wave, for this reason, they are used in digital transmission, receiver, television broadcast, etc.
6. They are used for pulse synchronization or pulse position modulation.
7. They are used as timing oscillator or clock in a computer system.
8. They are used in Radio Equipment such as Transmitter and Receiver Circuit.
9. In earlier days, astable multivibrators are used for morse code generation.
10. They are used in digital Flip-Flop Circuits, Electronic Register Circuits.
11. They are used in flashing lights, automatic switching circuits.
12. They are used for speed control of DC motor with Pulse Width Modulation Technique.
Advantages of Astable Multivibrator
1. They are very simple in design.
2. They are very reliable.
3. They are very easy to construct with a very low cost.
4. They do not need any external triggering.
5. They can run continuously for a very large amount of time without any problem.
Disadvantages of Astable Multivibrator
The continuous pulse generation by this multivibrator circuit depends upon the positive feedback. So due to the resistance in the circuit, this multivibrator cannot transfer the whole output signal to the input. So a small amplifier circuit is used with this multivibrator circuit which restores the lost energy.
