We present a parameterized method to design multivibrator circuits via piecewise-linear (PWL) chaotic systems, which can exhibit double-scroll oscillations. The circuit is conformed exploiting a parametric modulation that manipulates the equilibrium stability of each linear subsystem. Chua%27s oscillator is used as benchmark to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed method to design multivibrator circuits. Thus, our proposal allows the design of the three configurations of a multivibrator: monostable, astable, and bistable. Potential applications are illustrated designing a pulse generator and a full S-R flip flop device based on our all-in-one multivibrator circuit. © 2012 World Scientific Publishing Company.
