In reality, RF signals are “rectified” at the input of the amplifier by electrostatic discharge (ESD) diodes, input structures, and other non-linear elements contained within the amplifier. In a ...
What every RF design engineer needs these days is a good all-purpose IC RF amplifier. You don’t want to have to design basic circuits like this yourself. Yet the need is always there for a gain block ...
Modern high-performance transmitters require accurate monitoring of RF power, because most cellular standards depend on strict power- transmission levels to maintain an effective network. Regulation ...
