Abstract
A design method of GaAs MESFET oscillator using large-signal S-parameters has been discussed. Together with the measurement results of the dependence of Iarge-signall S-parameters on power levels and bias conditions, computer analysis of the equivalent circuit for MESFET'S has qualitatively clarified the large signal properties of MESFET'S. On the basis of these findings, S-parameters have been designed for the MESFET oscillator over the frequency range of 6-10 GHz, which has resulted in power output of 45 mW at 10 GHz with 19-percent efficiency, and 350 mW at 6.5 GHz with 26-percent efficiency, respectively. Good agreements between predicted and obtained performances of MIC positive feedback oscillator have been ascertained, verifying the validity of the design method using large-signal S-parameters.
