Experimental results obtained using a commercially available pvn diode in the TRAPATT mode in a microstrip resonator are given. It is shown that the oscillation frequency is defined easily in terms of a single circuit parameter, and that the diode performance agrees very well with that predicted by recently published analytical models.
