A linear electronically tunable sinusoid oscillator (LETSO) using a Current Feedback Amplifier (CFA) and three grounded capacitors, along with a pair of matched analog multiplier devices as the composite active building block (ABB) is presented. The design yields a high-Q filter response; thereby a sustained linear oscillatory response is implemented using the concept of Short-Circuit Natural Frequency (SCNF) at Q ∼ ∞. The oscillation frequency ( f o ) is linearly tunable by the multiplier
