Abstract :
Llewellyn´s small-signal theory for the parallel-plane diode is extended to include a closed-form second- and third-order solution for complete space-charge operation. Comparison with Benham´s conservation of charge method of treating the electronic equations shows that additional terms not given by Benham are obtained in the present solution.
