Assuming the validity of the Boussard criterion for the determination of the microwave instability threshold, we derive two coupled non linear differential equations which describe the time evolution of the energy spread and of the instability growth rate under different conditions. The equations reproduce the characteristic features of the saw tooth instability and are in agreement with the results of
