The second edition of the High Frequency Circuit Design is a unique book in the sense that it uses a free software (LTspice) to construct the schematic diagram and run the circuit simulation to find the output response. It also uses the low-cost software (MATLAB) to post process the simulated data.
Th book also introduces not only a solid understanding of the high frequency Concept and components such as Network Parameters, Resonant Circuits, Transmission lines, Filter Design, Discrete and Distributed Impedance Matching Circuits, Maximum Gain and Low noise Amplifiers, but more importantly it shows how to use design tools to to analyze, synthesize, tune, and optimize these essential components in a design flow as practiced in industry.
The High Frequency Circuit Design book is valuable in that it marries the theory with the many practical design examples in the book. Learning the fundamental theory of the high frequency circuit design with practical application of the low-cost software will broaden the student's potential for carrier opportunities.
