Abstract

527,146. Valve generating circuits. BRITISH THOMSON-HOUSTON CO., Ltd. March 31, 1939, No. 10181. Convention date, March 31, 1938. [Classes 39 (i) and 40 (v)] A valve oscillator comprises one grid 16 at a higher positive potential than the anode 21, a second grid 24 at a negative potential, a tuned circuit 14, 15 connected between the first grid and the cathode, and resonant means such as a piezo-electric crystal 29 for providing feed-back from the first grid to the second. With this arrangement, an increase of potential across circuit 14, 15 results in a decrease of current flowing from this circuit to grid 16 so that a negative-resistance effect is obtained. If the crystal breaks down the valve will continue to oscillate by feed-back through the inherent capacity of the crystal holder and associated wiring. In a modification, Fig. 3 (not shown), the crystal is replaced by a sharply-resonant series tuned circuit which is preferably enclosed under constant temperature and humidity conditions, and a third grid 27, which in Fig. 1 is connected directly to the cathode, is given a small negative bias. The circuit 14, 15 may be tuned to a harmonic of the fundamental frequency.
