Abstract
Simple expressions characterizing FET oscillator performance are presented. A stability criterion has been derived in a fairly general way. Novel expressions for the loaded quality factor for both fundamental- and harmonic-mode operation are given with expressions for the output PM noise. The results presented extend the well-established analysis of one-port oscillators to two-port oscillators.<>
