WHAT DOES ASTABLE MEAN IN ENGLISH?

astable

Multivibrator

A multivibrator is an electronic circuit used to implement a variety of simple two-state systems such as oscillators, timers and flip-flops. It is characterized by two amplifying devices cross-coupled by resistors or capacitors. The name "multivibrator" was initially applied to the free-running oscillator version of the circuit because its output waveform was rich in harmonics. There are three types of multivibrator circuits depending on the circuit operation: ▪ astable, in which the circuit is not stable in either state —it continually switches from one state to the other. It functions as a relaxation oscillator. ▪ monostable, in which one of the states is stable, but the other state is unstable. A trigger pulse causes the circuit to enter the unstable state. After entering the unstable state, the circuit will return to the stable state after a set time. Such a circuit is useful for creating a timing period of fixed duration in response to some external event. This circuit is also known as a one shot. ▪ bistable, in which the circuit is stable in either state. It can be flipped from one state to the other by an external trigger pulse.

Definition of astable in the English dictionary
