  • Abstract
    A simple technique has been presented to determine the up-conversion characteristics of IMPATT-diode amplifiers. The method uses the admittance characteristics of the device and the circuit of the amplifier. Theoretical results are given for a typical example and a comparison is made with experimental results obtained for actual amplifiers. Qualitative agreement is obtained.
