title = "A Simple Two-Transistor Chaos Generator Based on a Resistor-Capacitor Phase Shift Oscillator",
abstract = "We added a small subcircuit to an otherwise standard one-transistor self-biasing resistor-capacitor (RC) phase-shift oscillator to induce chaotic oscillations in four dimensions. The final circuit that we have designed uses only two transistors, no inductors, and is powered by a single supply voltage. As such it is an attractive and low-cost source of chaotic oscillations for many applications. We show that the qualitative behaviour of the circuit is captured using a simplified piecewise linear transistor model. Our analysis of this model shows the chaos to stem from hysteretic jumps between unstable equilibria around which growing oscillations exist.",
