I am trying to simulate a butterworth filter, as per Analog Devices application note AN-209.
I captured the first stage (attached multisim file). However, when I simulate, I get some weird result. Looking into the scope, the circuit is oscillating, while bode plot looks sensible but I am not convinced of the cut frequency.
What am I doing wrong?
Thank you.

Hello atrac,
have you taken a look at this link?

Thank you for your reply.
However, I need a different configuration that the filter wizard is not able to replicate, since I need to dinamically change the cut frequency by means of adc's as described in the mentioned application note.
In the meantime I noticed that if I increase R3 and R4 over 10k the cyrcuit does not oscillate any more, however this is not what I expect.
Regards
