-**Circuit**: Uses an op-amp with positive feedback through resistors and a capacitor in the negative feedback path.
166
166
-**Operation**: The capacitor charges and discharges between threshold voltages set by the resistors, causing the output to switch between supply rails.
167
-
-**Frequency**: Determined by the RC time constant, e.g., \( f = \frac{1}{2 \cdot R \cdot C \cdot \ln(3)} \) (approximate for some configurations).

-**Requirements**: Amplify a 50 mV audio signal to 500 mV (gain = 10).
-**Considerations**: Use a low-noise op-amp (e.g., OPA2134), add a coupling capacitor to block DC, and ensure the power supply supports the signal range (e.g., ±5 V).
