RF Amplifiers Improving Gain with Matching

RF Amplifiers Improving Gain with Matching

Analog Devices Inc

This presentation will demonstrate how it is possible to improve the gain in an RF amplifier. It will discuss S parameters and define how the gain of an RF amplifier is determined using S parameters. The tutorial will review the effect of the reflection coefficient and the circuit matching process.
