Frequency-doubling oscillator, tuned by varactors

摘要

An ultrahigh-frequency oscillator. To double the frequency of an oscillator having a single field-effect transistor (10), whose fundamental frequency is adjusted by an impedance of gate (13) and an impedance of source (15), a filter (16+17) is mounted between the drain of transistor (10) and the ground. This filter, formed by a self-induction coil (16) in series with a varactor (17) is adjusted to the fundamental frequency: it assures the rejection, and favors the generation of the second harmonic, at double frequency. Application to ultrahigh-frequency sources.
