ABSTRACT:
One aspect relates to an oscillator, and various oscillator embodiments comprise an amplifier and line driver with an input and an output and a transmission line with a predetermined transmission signal time delay. The output is adapted to produce an inverted signal with respect to a signal received at the input. The transmission line has a first end connected to the output and a second end connected to the input. Other aspects and embodiments are provided herein.
