|X| > 10
[10 (|X| 10) + (9b 1)] sgn (X)
where the expression for |X| > 10 is needed for stability, and corresponds to complicated
saturation effects in the actual circuit. Note that the slope is 1 for |X| < 1, b for
1 < |X| < 10, and 10 for |X| > 10.

In each case there is one decaying (negative) eigenvalue, and a pair of oscillating
(complex)
eigenvalues, with an imaginary part around 0.2, corresponding roughly to the
1/ LC2 oscillation frequency, and a real part that is either slightly negative (decaying
oscillation) as for the paraemters of the applet (first row) or slightly positive (growing
oscillation) for the other rows.
