Abstract
A self-excited solid-state oscillator for supplying a high-power RF inductive load. The oscillator includes at least one MOSFET transistor connected in a self-excited oscillator configuration, an output tuned circuit including an inductive load and a tank circuit connected to the load, the tank circuit having a resonant frequency determined at least in part by the inductance of the load, an RF feedback transformer coupling the tank circuit to the gate of the MOSFET for providing a switching signal to the MOSFET for causing the MOSFET to alternate between the on state and the off state at a frequency equal to the resonant frequency of the tank circuit, and a bias circuit for superimposing a forward bias voltage on the switching signal.
