Yes, this is a pretty unusual transistor circuit… and I wasn’t completely sure if it’d work, but this whole thing was just a whim. I spend 2 days on it, the first one reading about the LEDs, LM3407 (and lots of other chips), and thinking about that circuit. The second day, I...

The measured conversion efficiency of the rectifier circuit is the ratio of the output DC energy to the input RF power, which obviously decreases as the conventional modulation order increases, as illustrated in Fig. 3e. This is because a higher-order modulation will result in the transient peak...
At present, laboratory and industrial applications at 915 MHz and 2.45 GHz are developed using two types of MW sources/generators: magnetron-based and solid-state/transistor. 3.1.1 Magnetron-based microwave generator A magnetron MW generator consists of a high voltage (HV) power supply and...
When the emitter bias current, IE, is directed to one of the eight transistor pairs (by means not shown here), it becomes the input stage for the complete amplifier. Figure 4.36: X-AMP Schematic 4.36 RF/IF CIRCUITS VARIABLE GAIN AMPLIFIERS When IE is connected to the pair on the left-...

If the series pass transistor in the power supply fails, the voltage will start to rise - the decoupling in the unit will ensure it does not rise instantly. As it rises, it will rise above the point where the Zener diode starts to conduct and current will flow into the gate of the ...
