  • Abstract
    A novel GaAs FET oscillator circuit is presented. This circuit is capable of reducing phase noise up to 20 db. A source-coupled pair of GaAs FETs has a balanced characteristic which can eliminate both the reactive and resistive modulation mechanisms which upconvert l/f noise. This circuit is inherently broadband and ideal for monolithic implementations.
