The operation of high frequency class-C alloy junction transistor oscillators is studied by use of a simplified version of the block-diagram representation for the transistor as developed by Bruun. For the simplified version of the block-diagram representation used, unilateral operation of the transistor is assumed. Expressions approximating the transistor time delay, peak ac input voltage, and the collector current pulse cutoff time are derived by use of the block-diagram equations. An analog circuit, derived from the block-diagram equations, is used to study the class-C operation of a typical alloy junction transistor, and the results of this study are found to compare accurately with the actual transistor operation.
