Description
Summary:In this paper, an efficient approach to optimum design of power amplifiers stages is described. The impedances presented to the FET are optimized independently of the topology chosen for their realization. They are then synthetized by usual methods of linear circuits. The proposed method has been applied to the design of broadband power FET amplifiers. The realizations have given a good correlation between the theoretical and experimental results. Moreover, the method may be used to the optimum design of power FET multipliers.
