A powerful design approach for broadband high frequency amplifier has been developed. In particular, the new matching network here presented, based on an extension of the dual frequency transformer, allows to get over the inherent restriction of previously proposed structures. Design relationships are provided and discussed through numerical example. Finally, the proposed structure has been successfully applied to the design of a Ka-band (26-40 GHz) linear amplifier with a minimum return loss of 18dB.

Abstract
A powerful design approach for broadband high frequency amplifier has been developed. In particular, the new matching network here presented, based on an extension of the dual frequency transformer, allows to get over the inherent restriction of previously proposed structures. Design relationships are provided and discussed through numerical example. Finally, the proposed structure has been successfully applied to the design of a Ka-band (26-40 GHz) linear amplifier with a minimum return loss of 18dB.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
