Title :
Constant Voltage Biasing of IMPATT Injection-Locked Oscillators

May 31 1983-June 3 1983
Abstract :
It is shown by analysis and experimental data that constant voltage biasing is practical with IMPATT oscillators. Constant-voltage biasing offers a lesser possibility of a thermal runaway, as compared to the conventional constant-current biasing. The price for this thermal advantage is a degradation of output power with elevating ambient temperature.
