Description

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.

Key features

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).

Readership

RF Circuit Designers, digital engineering students

Table of contents

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.
