Have you wondered why the printed circuit wires on high-frequency circuits dont always run in a straight line? This valuable text will answer all of your questions regarding component parasitics and circuit characterization for rf\/microwave amplifier  oscillator  and filter circuit design and analysis. You will understand why capacitors act as inductors and vice versa and why amplifiers work like oscillators  while oscillators for local area networks work more like local area heaters.  Application of the information in Introduction to Microwave Circuits will reduce design-cycle time and costs  markedly increasing the probability of first-time success in printed circuit or monolithic microwave integrated circuit (MMIC) design. Several approaches are taken into consideration  such as the effects of currents on the ground plane  bypass and coupling capacitors  and nonlinear effects in linear circuits. Featured topics include:  Incorporation of component parasitics in the design cycle  Closed form solution to oscillator design  Odd mode stability analysis  PIN diode analysis for high-power switching applications  An integrated design example of a 1.25 GHz amplifier  oscillator  and filter printed circuit is also included  which could be useful in printed circuit board designs from tens of megahertz to tens of gigahertz.  Introduction to Microwave Circuits provides the tools necessary to analyze or synthesize microwave circuits. This text is an essential reference for undergraduate students  microwave engineers  and administrators. Also  it will assist experienced designers in other fields to meet the current rapid expansion of communication system applications and work effectively in microwave circuit design.  About the Author  Robert J. Weber began his prolific career in the Solid State Research Laboratory at the Collins Radio Company  later a part of Rockwell International. For 25 years  he worked on advanced development and applied research in the one- to ten-gigahertz frequency range and received several distinguished awards for his valuable contributions to the field.  Dr. Weber is involved in ongoing experimental research in integrating microwave circuits with other devices such as MEMS  chemical sensors  and electro-optics. Also  he teaches microwave circuit design and fiber-optics communications at the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering  Iowa State University. Dr. Weber is an IEEE Fellow.\"  Sponsored by: IEEE Microwave Theory and Techniques Society.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45652229783605,"sku":"ByrdShop_0780347048","price":240.12,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780780347045.jpg?v=1781850125","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/introduction-to-microwave-circuits-radio-frequency-and-design-applications-ieee-press-series-on-rf-and-microwave-technology-9780780347045","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
