In this paper, we propose a varactor-diodeless voltage-controlled oscillator operating at X-band, and verify the possibility of applying to a receiver for microwave radar signal detection applications. The proposed VCO is realized by only single RF BJT device as a varactor diode is substitued by a intrinsic collector-base PN-junction of the active device which is used to generate negative resistance. The fabricated VCO meets the specification of the receiver, which has a 11. . FET 계열의 능동 소자를 이용한 발진기는 X-대역에서도 우수한 출력 특성을 구현할 수 있지만 적절한 바이어스 공급을 위해 부성 전압 (negative voltage) 발생을 위한 추가적인 회로가 요구 된다. 반면에 X-대역에서 낮은 이득 특성을 갖는 BJT 소자의 한계를 극복하기 위한 push-push 발진기
