Radio Frequency Transistors

CONTENTS INCLUDE: Understanding RF data sheet parameters; Reliability considerations; Selecting an RF transistor; Advantages and disadvantages of FET's and bipolars in specific applications; Low noise amplifier design; RF Power design techniques; Pulsed power amplifiers; Oscillators and frequency multipliers; RF construction practices and techniques; Testing RF power amplifiers.

Cellular telephones, satellite communications and radar systems are adding to the increasing demand for radio frequency circuit design principles. At the same time, several generations of digitally-oriented graduates are missing the essential RF skills. This book contains a wealth of valuable design information difficult to find elsewhere.

It's a complete 'tool kit' for successful RF circuit design. Written by experienced RF design engineers from Motorola's semiconductors product section. Book covers design examples of circuits (e.g. amplifiers; oscillators; switches; pulsed power; modular systems; wiring state-of-the-art devices; design techniques).
