Abstract
Differential equations are derived for a symmetric transistor trigger and multivibrator. It is shown that the equations can be derived using the author’s expression for the current characteristic of a common-emitter transistor amplifier based on the Lambert W function (in spite of the fact that the equations can be formulated using different characteristics). The equilibrium state for the differential equations of the trigger is studied. Slow and fast motions are analyzed for the differential equations of the multivibrator. A numerical solution for the multivibrator is presented.
