Definitions for "Hartley oscillator"
A signal generator circuit in which the inductor of the resonant circuit is tapped by the cathode of the oscillator tube or the emitter of the transistor.
a thermionic oscillator comprising a triode with an oscillatory circuit connected between anode and grid, and inductive coupling between the anode and grid circuits, via a tapping on the inductive element of the tuned circuit
An oscillator that uses a tapped inductor in the feedback network.
