In this walkthrough she demonstrates simulating a Colpitts oscillator using NI Multisim 14.3 – a deceptively simple analog circuit known for generating stable sine waves.

Different models, such as water flowing in a central heating system, can be used to understand electrical circuits. Find out more with BBC Bitesize. For students between the ages of 11 and 14.

A circuit can also contain other electrical components, such as bulbs, buzzers or motors, which allow electricity to pass through. Electricity will only travel around a circuit that is complete.
