  • Abstract
    Design and performance of an X-band microstrip bipolar varactor-tuned oscillator integrated with an FET amplifier is presented. Wide temperature operation (-55/spl deg/ to 71/spl deg/C), constant high power (0.5 W), low post-tuning drift (0.75 MHz) for 8 percent tuning range, and exceptionally low FM noise (-132 dB/Hz at 1 MHz) is reported.
