  • Abstract
    A fundamental YIG-tuned oscillator has been developed using a submicron GaAs FET to cover 18 to 40 GHz. Power output of +13 dBm and phase noise of better than -100 dBc/Hz at 100 kHz from the carrier have been achieved. The approach used to design the oscillator circuit and the magnetic for the oscillator is discussed, and test data are presented.<>
