Description:

Here's an authoritative resource that offers you valuable assistance with your work involving microwave circuit analysis and design. This practical book provides a thorough understanding of the properties of planar transmission lines for integrated circuits. It presents matrix and computer-aided methods for analysis and design of circuit components. You find in-depth details on input, output, and interstage networks, as well as coverage of stability, noise, and signal distortion. Moreover, this unique book is the first to explore and develop the interface between lumped-element circuits and distributed element circuits. Supported with over 580 equations and 100 illustrations, this volume…
