Passive RF & Microwave Integrated Circuits (Hardcover)
內容描述
Description:
The growth in RF and wireless/mobile computing
devices that operate at microwave frequencies has resulted in explosive demand
for integrated circuits capable of operating at such frequencies in order to
accomplish functions like frequency division, phase shifting, attenuation, and
isolators and circulators for antennas. This book is an introduction to such
ICs, combining theory and practical applications of those devices. In addition
to this combined theory and application approach, the author discusses the
critical importance of differing fabrication materials on the performance of
ICs at different frequencies. This is an area often overlooked when choosing
ICs for RF and microwave applications, yet it can be a crucial factor in how
an IC performs in a given application.
