667GHz oscillator

667GHz oscillator using relays. Based on the Principle of constancy relay operation speed, I tried to make an oscillation circuit that would give the maximum value on the simulator's frequency display. Faster oscillation may be possible by other methods.

I believe you stumbled upon what I like to call the "Hacked Clock." Since there is no delay in the movement of the contacts (as you probably noticed), the simulator will switch it back and forth as fast as it can for a given time step size. That's why the frequency changes based on simulation speed. The same sorta thing can be done with the counter: https://everycircuit.com/circuit/5694986422321152 Good luck!

Oh, we can make it with counters and even 555! So an oscillation circuit with relays has joined these.

This means that the oscillation circuit with two relays that is always used was the fastest in the simulation while ensuring the operation time of the other relays...

That's a good point.

Do not try the 555 timer because it is very slow
