Abstract :
This paper gives formulas for the transients in a simple lossless harmonic generator circuit consisting of a step recovery diode, two inductors, and two capacitors. By means of graphic plots of the instantaneous values of currents and voltages, it is concluded that high efficiency requires approximately equal values of the two inductors.
