The Book End

摘要

The main objective of this book is to present all relevant information necessary for RF and microwave transistor oscillator design, including well-known and new theoretical approaches and practical circuit schematics and designs. Chapter 1 presents the most commonly used design techniques for analyzing nonlinear circuits, in particular transistor oscillators. Chapter 2 introduces the principles of oscillator design, including start-up and steady-state operation conditions, basic oscillator configurations using lumped and transmission-line elements, and simplified equation-based analysis and design techniques. Several examples of stability criteria for different single-resonant and double-resonant oscillator circuits are described and analyzed in Chapter 3. Chapter 4 presents both the empirical and analytical optimum design approaches applied to series and parallel feedback oscillators, including circuit design and simulation aspects and high efficiency.
