  • Abstract
    The analysis by Kurokowa of the Rucker multidevice symmetrical oscillator circuit has been applied to the design of a single-tuned high-power IMPATT amplifier. It is shown that the stability of the amplifier régime can be predicted from a simple circuit model. An experimental circuit has successfully demonstrated the different circuit régimes when operating in a single coherent mode.
