Abstract :
A metal ceramic microstrip oscillator circuit using high-efficiency silicon avalanche diodes mounted in capacitively loaded transverse-electromagnetic (TEM) coupled lines is described. The physical dimensions of the oscillator circuit are 1.5 by 1.0 by 0.5 inches high. Results achieved at L-band are 105 watts peak output at 1.5 GHz with 13-percent efficiency.
