Abstract :
The transistor transit-time oscillator (t.t.t.) feasibility has been demonstrated in recent years. Small signal, negative resistance and oscillations were obtained and the main limitations were reported. The present paper gives device potential performances under large-signal c.w. operations and proposes an optimised structure for 10 GHz.
