Abstract
An oscillator disclosed has a resonant tank circuit inclusive of an inductor (L1), a capacitor (C1), a capacitor (C3) and a capacitor (C4) connected in series with one another. A signal amplifier (A) is connected in a feedback loop which includes capacitor (C3). An additional impedance (C5) is connected between the feedback output of the amplifier and the feedback signal dividing capacitors (C3) and (C4). This additional impedance (C5) improves tuning range, tuning linearity, phase noise performance, and provides a very flat power output at ultra high frequencies.
