Impedance matching is one of the perpetual confusions for new electronics students, and for good reason: the idea that increasing the impedance of a circuit can lead to more power transmission is ...
[Ralph] is excited about impedance matching, and why not? It is important to match the source and load impedance to get the most power out of a circuit. He’s got a whole series of videos about it. The ...
You have probably heard the statement about standing wave ratio: “I changed the length of the transmission line and reduced the SWR.” Or the opposite statement, “I changed the length of the ...
In response to the prior Smith chart essay, several comments were offered via LinkedIn groups. One comment in particular, from Dan Bullard, caught my attention: “One of my interview questions is, what ...
The 3D Smith chart Java tool is a new design instrument for all the active and passive microwave circuits: – It is based on a June 2011 IEEE MWCL Journal paper “A 3D Smith chart based on the Riemann ...
