Overview

This is the third edition of a successful book on microwave circuit design. The book covers all aspects of transistors, from their intrinsic and circuit properties to circuit design techniques for maximizing their performance in communication and radar systems. This edition places specific emphasis on CMOS technology. GaN, SiC and related materials on frequency range and feedback power amplifiers will be extended and updated to the millimeter range region. Includes a new chapter on microelectromechanical systems (MEMS), a new section on CMOS, GaN, and SiC noise models, and new sections on Leeson's and SiC-based power oscillator models and applications to real circuits.
