Impedance mismatch in a circuit results in energy being reflected back to the source, reducing the amount of power available to the load and possibly causing damage to the power source. Matching the ...

When it comes to actual antennas in the real world, much of our knowledge is empirical. We know very broadly theories that explain how a point charge radiates (Maxwell’s equations), the need for ...

Peregrine Semiconductor’s DuNE technology solves one of the orneriest problems in RF design—antenna impedance matching. In every wireless application, an antenna has to be connected to the radio. That ...

Impedance matching is easy if you know the basics. Download the eBook to find out how. Impedance matching is one of those design processes that you use to make circuits and equipment work properly. It ...

It’s one thing to learn about transmission lines in theory, and quite another to watch a voltage pulse bounce off an open connector. [Alpha Phoenix] bridges the gap between knowledge and understanding ...

A so-called random wire antenna is an end fed antenna. One end goes straight into the rig, often with no feedline, and the other end in the air attached to something as high as you can find, as ...
