Abstract

A two-terminal field effect transistor device which is capable of operation as an oscillator including a field effect transistor connected in a two-terminal manner. The transistor has the usual drain source and gate electrodes and oscillating instability is provided by means of an inductance means of value so as to provide this circuit instability to enable circuit oscillations. The two-terminal arrangement is enabled by means of essentially interconnecting the gate and drain electrodes by way of said inductance means.
