Differential constructive wave oscillator device
A differential constructive wave oscillator device including a single, continuous differential transmission line that is arranged into first and second parallel traces in the form of a Mobius loop. The continuous transmission line includes first and second crossover points, each of which provides for a point of inflection between the first and second traces. In each stage of the device, both the first and second traces of the transmission line carry the forward traveling wave signal from a differential input port to a differential output port. Each phase includes a differential delay section that provides for a phase shift between a signal on the first trace and a signal on the second trace. Each phase additionally includes a differential feedback amplifier that amplifies the forward traveling wave signal at the differential output port, generates a differential feedback signal, and routes the differential feedback signal to the differential input port.
