A Unified Approach to the Impedance Stabilization of Vacuum Tube and Transistor L-C Feedback Oscillators
Abstract
A general oscillator circuit, into which either a vacuum tube or a transistor can theoretically be inserted, is developed for use as a vehicle for linear analysis. Six different oscillator configurations are then analyzed; and, from specific expressions calculated, general expressionsfor stabilized frequency and stabilizing impendences are synthesized. After rules for Interpreting the general expressions are set forth, the expressions are tested for three oscillator configurations not used in their synthesis. The results of the test prove the validity of the expressions. It is concluded that these expressions hold for all vacuum-tube and transistor L-C feedback oscillators, and therefore the desired unified approach to impedance stabilization is established.
