Stability criteria for negative-resistance oscillators
Abstract
The stability criterion for a free-running negative-resistance oscillator is shown to be invariant to transformation through a wide class of 2-port networks connecting the device terminals to a convenient reference plane in the external circuit. In this way, the experimental application of the criterion to a given circuit is greatly simplified.
