Abstract :
A broadband varactor-tuned GaAs f.e.t. oscillator (7.4 to 13.1 GHz) is presented, together with measured and predicted performance characteristics. The circuit uses tuning in series with both the gate and the source leads of the device to maintain optimum oscillation conditions across the band.
