Abstract :
A new circuit with tunnel diode and two delay lines of different time constants is described. Some peculiarities are noticed: 1) the self-oscillating range surpasses the negative-resistance portion of diode characteristics; 2) the period of pulses remains a rigorous constant; and 3) the circuit is free of hysteresis phenomenon.
