Annotation: Achieve first-time-success designing RF and microwave amplifiers and oscillators using the iterative synthesis techniques provided in this practical resource. The book introduces new approaches to help you estimate the 1dB compression point of class A and class B linear circuits, initialize the fundamental component voltages and currents in a harmonic balance simulator, and more easily generate load-pull contours for class A and class B transistors.

Considered as a generalization of the Cripps approach, this independently developed method can be applied easily to control or predict the output power in single- or multi-stage amplifiers. Changes in the transistor's configuration, as well as feedback and loading can also be handled smoothly.

This book helps you:
gain greater insight into the characteristics of single-layer parallel plate capacitors and provide accurate models for them
obtain a clear picture of the stability of each stage in the amplifier and control the output power and oscillation frequency of an oscillator based on linear principles
design class A high dynamic range amplifiers, multistage power amplifiers, amplifiers with an optimum noise match and a low input VSWR, and wideband impedance-matching networks

The book also includes all of the design principles, theory, and background from the well-received first edition. It is an excellent resource for amplifier and oscillator designers, RF and microwave engineers, and university students.
