This lecture demonstrates the merits of analog electronics through the classic Wien bridge oscillator circuit, showcasing its simplicity, power, tunability, sine wave oscillation, wide dynamic range, and amplitude stability. The circuit includes basic elements like capacitors, resistors, and a lamp as a nonlinear resistor in the feedback loop. A comparison is made with a complex function generator, highlighting the cleaner signal output and lower harmonics of the analog setup.
