The computer-aided procedures for systematic design of lumped and distributed element even-order amplifier matching networks are extended to include odd-order networks. The gain-bandwidth performance of general odd-order networks as well as that of several specific odd-order topologies of special interest are discussed. Practical monolithic input, output, and interstage matching network topologies using both lumped and distributed elements are shown, and the potential for reducing required chip area by using networks of 3rd order in lieu of 4th order is shown for both low-noise and power amplifier examples. Analytical techniques are presented for computing the maximum realizable value of the denominator polynomial constant of odd-order gain functions in both the lumped and distributed element cases for 3rd order networks of arbitrary ripple, bandwidth, minimum insertion loss, and gain slope.

Broadband RF and Microwave Amplifiers provides extensive coverage of broadband radio frequency (RF) and microwave power amplifier design, including well-known historical and recent novel schematic configurations, theoretical approaches, circuit simulation results, and practical implementation strategies. The text begins by introducing two-port networks to illustrate the behavior of linear and nonlinear circuits, explaining the basic principles of power amplifier design, and discussing impedance matching and broadband power amplifier design using lumped and distributed parameters. The book then: Shows how dissipative or lossy gain-compensation-matching circuits can offer an important trade-off between power gain, reflection coefficient, and operating frequency bandwidth Describes the design of broadband RF and microwave amplifiers using real frequency techniques (RFTs), supplying numerous examples based on the MATLABĀ® programming process Examines Class-E power amplifiers, Doherty amplifiers, low-noise amplifiers, microwave gallium arsenide field-effect transistor (GaAs FET)-distributed amplifiers, and complementary metal-oxide semiconductor (CMOS) amplifiers for ultra-wideband (UWB) applications Broadband RF and Microwave Amplifiers combines theoretical analysis with practical design to create a solid foundation for innovative ideas and circuit design techniques.

This report presents design aspects of ultra-wideband GaAs MESFET power amplifiers which are directed to ECM and EW system applications. Fundamental gain-bandwidth limitations are derived for state-of-the-art GaAs MESFET power devices. Broadband designs are developed in the 2- to 18-GHz range using analytical and computer-aided optimization techniques. These designs are based upon small-and large-signal device characterization and modeling. Presented are systematic procedures required to arrive at the final designs. Modeling techniques and their utilization as a tool in achieving optimum performance are described. Included in this report is a discussion of the laboratory methods employed to perform small-and large-signal device characterization and analysis. (Author).
