Abstract
The authors present a STW (surface transverse wave)-stabilized X-band oscillator. The main feedback oscillator circuit consists of a third-harmonic STW delay line at 2.25 GHz, a two-stage amplifier, and a diplexing network. The second stage of the amplifier in the oscillator loop doubles the frequency from 2.25 GHz to 4.5 GHz. An additional 4.5-GHz-to-9-GHz MESFET doubler is integrated on the same substrate. The oscillator delivers 5 mW of output power. Phase noise is at least -90 dBc/Hz down at 20 kHz from the carrier.<>
