1. Components: characteristics and characterization
Readers are invited to refer to the previous article
The design of an amplifier begins with the choice of power transistor, followed by an analysis of its characteristics. The parameters of this choice will be illustrated with actual RF power transistor specification sheets, chosen arbitrarily but representative of the information that is, in general, given by manufacturers.
1.1 Power component structure
Before looking at how to choose them, it's worth briefly recalling the forms in which active components (transistors) are offered on the market, to...
