Self and excited oscillations in a circuit composed of a non-linear element and a delay line

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

This paper presents an analysis of pulse circuits composed of a tunnel diode and a transmission line. The method employed, analysis in the v-i plane, is applied to the self-oscillation mode as well as to that of the one-shot mode. Effects of load and source (bias) impedance, linear and non-linear, are investigated. The analysis of nonlinear biasing leads to configurations which present an improved triggering ability, shorter recovery time and less sensitivity to bias voltage variations.
