This practical book presents a Universal Design Procedure that can be applied to virtually all types of passive, active, linear, or nonlinear microwave components. It allows you to leave the complexities of network synthesis to computer software so that you can focus your attention on the versatility of synthesis procedures and their applications. Includes more than 170 illustrations and 230 equations.

This work provides a comprehensive discussion of the bias dependence of equivalent circuit parameters for the three devices and an extensive discussion of temperature dependence. It: covers recess-etched MESFETs and self-aligned MESFETs with and without lightly-doped-drains and JFETs; analyzes GaAs-based pHEMTS and InP lattice-matched HEMT equivalent circuits; and describes a large-signal, temperature-dependent model extractor for A1GaAs-GaAs HBTs. The book is intended for circuit designers, process and device developers and test engineers.

This work is intended for product designers and consultants in the RF and wireless communications industry. It is also suitable for use as a university-level text and as a reference for professional trainers. The guide contains measurement methods, system calculations, statistical procedures and actual circuit and measurement examples which can be put into practice. It comes with a diskette containing a database of drawings, schematics, text and the convenience of live equations. (The diskette operates on Macintosh Ststem 7 or later, Windows 3.1 or later and Microsoft Excel 4.0 or later).
