Publisher's Synopsis
What sets this book apart is the fact that it is not just another microwave book describing scientific facts and phenomena. It would surely be redundant since that task has been done many times over with much more elegant prose and brighter narrators.Here is a book where, for the first time, we have undertaken the task of breaking the subject of RF and microwaves into its many components. Just like the light phenomenon, which was made to be a subset of electricity by James Clerk Maxwell, thus revolutionizing our world, so would this book by bringing about a new era of incredible design and applications in the microwave world!This book is the road map of circuit design for high frequency signals where it, through the use of numerous examples, presents detailed and yet powerful design techniques that anyone can learn! Moreover, the CD-ROM download provides a powerful interactive tool to learn and master the design methods provided in this book, and guides the reader toward a higher level of success by delivering quick answers for complicated designs. The Volume VI of the series, provides the advanced techniques for the design of active microwave circuits. The list of circuit applications contained in this volume consists of microwave amplifiers (both small-signal and large-signal), oscillators, rectifiers, detectors, mixers, control circuits, and integrated circuits (both monolithic and hybrid). It gradually dawns upon one that the knowledge contained within the confines of this book could be one's biggest asset in the design of sophisticated RF and Microwave active circuits.
