Abstract :
The operation of a single Fairchild FD-300 diode at approximately 40-percent efficiency is reported. Peak power output was 90 W at 502 MHz. These diodes are of particular interest because they are exceptionally inexpensive commercially available diodes which have been found to exhibit TRAPATT behavior.
