  • Abstract
    The pertinent forward and reverse transient characteristics of a tunnel diode for a ramp input are analytically investigated. A comparison with the results of a step input shows that the slope of the trigger pulse greatly affects the initial development of the process. The results for a linear piecewise approximation are also presented to estimate the deviation from the actual results.
