  • Abstract
    Analytic closed-form expressions for the switching time of a tunnel diode trigger are obtained with backward diode as a nonlinear load. For given operating points the nonlinear load increases the stability and the sensitivity of the trigger, maintaining almost the same order of switching speed as for a linear load.
