Video 5.10 - Conquer Radio Frequency

Note: In newer versions of AWR, the BFP640 Model may be found under "Infineon" - "Data" - "RF Bipolar Transistors" - "Ultra Low Noise SiGe:C BJT up to 12 GHz".
Content:
Available Gain Circles. Amplifier design for a specific gain with an unstable device using available gain circles (GACIR).
MDIF transistor models.
Version 13 update: In version 13, “To” and “From” ports must now be specified for a number of two-port measurements. This was not required for version 12 or earlier.
The measurement “MU1()” shown in the video has now been replaced by MU1(2,1) in version 13. That is "To port"=2, "From port"=1.
"MU2()" has also been replaced by MU2(2,1).
The measurement "MSG()" shown in the video has now been replaced by MSG(2,1).The measurement “SCIR1()” shown in the video has now been replaced by SCIR1(2,1) in version 13. “SCIR2()” has also been replaced by SCIR2(2,1).
The measurement "GACIR(22.6,1,3)" shown in the video has now been replaced by "GACIR(2,1,22.6,1,3) i.e. "To port"=2, "From port"=1, "Max gain"=22.6, "Gain step"=1, "Number circles"=3. The measurement "GACIR(18,0,1)" shown in the video has now been replaced by "GACIR(2,1,18,0,1) i.e. "To port"=2, "From port"=1, "Max gain"=18, "Gain step"=0, "Number circles"=1.

I am currently doing an internship in the field of RF, and I cannot even say in words how much you helped me Professor. I learned so much in such a short time. Also, if you would be interested, I'd love to see some videos about distributed element circuits. Thanks a lot.

Glad I could help!

Thank you so much for this video series. I feel so fortunate to be able to watch this on KZbin.

Thanks!

[@jackryan2531]

I finished whole series and it was really been fabuluos for my bachelor dissertion. If you add couple of video for noise consideration, thats gonna be grat. Thank you so much sir.

[@ExploreRF]

Thanks, Jack. I am really pleased that you found them useful! I will add some more as soon as I get a chance.

Amazing series. Good explanation all the way through the series. Would love to see design considering noise figures all well along with layout considerations.

Thanks, Kapil! Those are great suggestions! My next topic was going to be power amplfiers actually, but I am always so swamped with work at Bristol Uni these days and it's hard to find the time..

[@Radiofreak1041]

I've watched the whole video series, it's absolutely fantastic! Thanks for your clean explanations, it has really helped me becoming more familiar with this topic.

Thanks for your kind words. I'm very pleased to hear that you found my material useful!

[@anguslf2]

thanks for uploading these useful knowledge and simulation skills of RF design. that's really help and inspire me.
