Question
100%

I want to confirm if my work is correct. The problem is:

For the Astable Multivibrator shown in the figure, take RA=1k, RB=0.5k and 
C=1microF and calculate the duty cycle and the frequency of the pulse that is 
generated. Note that you can calculate the frequency from 1/T.

I've attached the figure and my work below. The formulas I used is the ones that were provided.

The Duty Cycle: Duty Cycle = (1k +.5k)/(1k + 2(. 5k)) × 100 → Duty Cycle = 1.5k/2k * 100 Duty Cycle 75% 4 ELEN 3322 RA = 1k0, R₂ = 0.5k and C= = 1μF The frequency: T = 0.693 (R₁ + 2RB)C → T = 0.693(1k + 2(.5k))(1µ) → T = 1.386ms Frequency = 721.5Hz
