ABSTRACT:
A frequency multiplier in which one or more varactors each include arrays of Schottky barrier diodes combined in rows of parallel-connected diodes and columns of series-connected diodes. The arrays are dispersed on a thermal substrate, or confined to a GaAs strip guide on a suitable substrate and in either case employed in various discrete-component or integrated circuit transmissions systems. These series-parallel arrays can be increased in size as desired for power handling capabilities or thermal dissipation and provide readily selectable impedance levels and breakdown voltages. These properties make the frequency multipliers useful in microwave and millimeter-wave systems, including those requiring high-power transmitters.
