  • Abstract
    Peripheral power density (p.p.d.), i.e. the output power per Unit gate width is defined as a figure of merit for GaAs f.e.t. oscillators. An X-band oscillator circuit using series and shunt feedback is described and its performance characteristies indicated. It is shown that this GaAs f.e.t. oscillator circuit configuration has the highest peripheral power density.
