Abstract :
A possible explanation for a type of experimentally observed amplitude instability for amplifiers and locked oscillators is given. The results obtained are in good agreement qualitatively with measurements on IMPATT-diode amplifiers. The theory shows that the susceptsnce of the active element has to be amplitude dependent to create the actual type of instability.
