During impedance matching, a specific electronic load (R L) is made to match a generator output impedance (R g) for maximum power transfer. The need arises in virtually all electronic circuits, ...

This chapter discusses different receiver and transmitter architectures with focus on the system performance rather than on the circuit design. The receiver parameters that are discussed include ...

If your PCB design includes only two layer, the top layer should include the power stage, RF signal lines and RF components. Then the bottom layer must be the ground plane. 2) The length of the lines ...

RF and wireless used to be the province of a relatively few specialized practitioners, and RF circuit and system design were as much art as science. Some things have changed: RF (which broadly and ...

The more current that flows through the intrinsic region in turn decreases the device RF resistance. A PIN diode behaves like an open circuit, like a short circuit, and anywhere in between. It can be ...

In RF applications, transmission lines generally are coaxial cables external to circuit boards and microstrips within circuit boards. These components have a characteristic impedance.

The book explores stability criteria and the invariant property of lossless networks and includes detailed theoretical treatments. The basic concepts and techniques covered in this book are routinely ...

2) The basic parameters of a RF system and the RF system analysis are described in the second portion. This is a portion of a “Must” theoretical background to a RF circuit designer who should ...
