EE 194 RF: Lecture 1
• Importance of RF circuit design– wireless communications (explosive growth of
cell phones)
– global positioning systems (GPS)
– computer engineering (bus systems, CPU,peripherals exceeding 600 MHz)
• Why this course???– lumped circuit representation no longer applies!

How exactly is the current distribution as a function offrequency?
• Low frequency showsuniform currentdistribution
• medium to highfrequency pushescurrent to the outside
• RF “sees” currentcompletely restrictedto surface

Advantages versus disadvantages ofelectric circuit representation
• Clear intuitivephysical picture
• yields a standardizedtwo-port networkrepresentation
• serves as buildingbocks to go frommicroscopic tomacroscopic forms
• Basically a one-dimensional representation(cannot take into accountinterferences)
• Material nonlinearities,hysteresis, and temperatureeffects are not accountedfor

Alternative: re-interpretation
Instead of rotating the reflection coefficient about180 degree, we keep the location fixed and rotate theentire Smith Chart by 180 degree.

to S11* and S22* of the RF BJT or FET• Either open or short circuit stubs may be used• When using short circuit stubs, place a capacitor
between the stub and ground to produce RF path to ground – Do not short directly to ground as this will affect transistor DC biasing
• High resistance λ/4 transformers or RFC’s may be used to provide DC path to transistor for biasing without affecting the RF signal path

Stability of Amplifiers
• In a two-port network, oscillations are possible if the magnitude of either the input or output reflection coefficient is greater than unity, which is equivalent to presenting a negative resistance at the port. This instability is characterized by
|Γin| > 1 or |Γout| > 1 which for a unilateral device implies |S11| > 1 or |S22| > 1.

Gain Circles• Max gain Γimax =1/(1-|Sii|2) when Γi = Sii* ;
gain circle center is at dgi= Sii* and radius rgi =0
• Constant gain circles have centers on a line connecting origin to Sii*
• For special case Γi = 0, gi = 1-|Sii|2 and dgi = rgi = |Sii|/(1+|Sii|2) implying Γi = 1 (0 dB) circle always passes through origin of Γi plane

What Does Stability Mean?• Stability circles determine what load or source
impedances should be avoided for stable or non-oscillatory amplifier behavior
• Because reactive loads are being added to amp the conditions for oscillation must be determined
• So the Output Stability Circle determine the ΓL or load impedance (looking into matching network from output of amp) that may cause oscillation
• Input Stability Circle determine the ΓS or impedance (looking into matching network from input of amp) that may cause oscillation
![Page 228: Cours Hyperfrequences](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022081716/54500fcdb1af9f1c168b48e1/html5/thumbnails/228.jpg)
Criteria for Unconditional Stability• Unconditional Stability when amplifier
remains stable throughout the entire domain of the Smith Chart at the operating bias and frequency. Applies to input and output ports.
• For |S11| < 1 and |S22| < 1, the stability circles reside completely outside the |ΓS| = 1 and |ΓL| = 1 circles.

Stabilization Methods• Stabilization methods can be used to for
operation of BJT or FET found to be unstable at operating bias and frequency
• One method is to add series or shunt conductance to the input or output of the active device in the RF signal path to “move” the source or load impedances out of the unstable regions as defined by the Stability Circles

line connecting the origin to Sii* • For the special case Γi = 0 the normalized
gain is:gi = 1 - | Sii |2 and dgi = rgi = | Sii |/(1 + | Sii |2)

Design Procedure for RF BJT Amps• Determine if ΓL ( S22* for conjugate match)
lies in unstable region – do same for ΓS• If stable, no worries. • If unstable, add small shunt or series
resistance to move effective S22* into stable region – use max outer edge real part of circle as resistance or conductance (do same for input side)
• Can adjust gain by detuning ΓL or ΓS

Design Procedure for RF BJT Amps• To design for specified gain, must be less than
GTU max (max unilateral gain small S12)• Recall that (know G0 = |S21|2)
GTU [dB] = GS [dB] + G0 [dB] + GL [dB]• Detune either ΓS or ΓL
• Draw gain circles for GS (or GL) for detuned ΓS (or ΓL) matching network
• Overall gain is reduced when designed for (a) Stability and (b) detuned matching netw0rk

Class C Amplifier
• Class C amplifier operates for less than half of the input cycle. It’s efficiency is about 75% because the active device is biased beyond cutoff.
• It is commonly used in RF circuits where a resonant circuit must be placed at the output in order to keep the sine wave going during the non-conducting portion of the input cycle.

External Noise
• Equipment / Man-made Noise is generated by any equipment that operates with electricity
• Atmospheric Noise is often caused by lightning
• Space Noise is strongest from the sun and, at a much lesser degree, from other stars

Internal Noise (cont’d)
• Shot Noise is due to random variations in current flow in active devices.
• Partition Noise occurs only in devices where a single current separates into two or more paths, e.g. bipolar transistor.
• Excess Noise is believed to be caused by variations in carrier density in components.

Noise Figure
• Noise Figure is a figure of merit that indicates how much a component, or a stage degrades the SNR of a system:
NF = (S/N)i / (S/N)o
where (S/N)i = input SNR (not in dB)and (S/N)o = output SNR (not in dB)
NF(dB)=10 log NF = (S/N)i (dB) - (S/N)o (dB)

Clapp Oscillator
The Clapp oscillator is a variation of the Colpitts circuit. C4 is added in series with L in the tank circuit. C2 and C3 are chosen
large enough to “swamp” out the transistor’s junction capacitances for greater stability. C4 is often chosen to be << either C2 or C3,
thus making C4 the frequency determining element, since CT = C4.

Mixers
• A mixer is a nonlinear circuit that combines two signals in such a way as to produce the sum and difference of the two input frequencies at the output.
• A square-law mixer is the simplest type of mixer and is easily approximated by using a diode, or a transistor (bipolar, JFET, or MOSFET).

Balanced Mixers
• A balanced mixer is one in which the input frequencies do not appear at the output. Ideally, the only frequencies that are produced are the sum and difference of the input frequencies.

Equations for Balanced Mixer
Let the inputs be v1 = sin ω1t and v2 = sin ω2t.A balanced mixer acts like a multiplier. Thusits output, vo = Av1v2 = A sin ω1t sin ω2t.Since sin X sin Y = 1/2[cos(X-Y) - cos(X+Y)]Therefore, vo = A/2[cos(ω1-ω2)t-cos(ω1+ω2)t].The last equation shows that the output of
the balanced mixer consists of the sum and difference of the input frequencies.

Creating Oscillator Condition
• Frequently begin with common-base or common-gate configuration
• Convert common-emitter s-parameters to common-base (similarly for FETs)
• Add inductor in series with base (or gate) as positive feedback loop network to attain unstable Rollett factor k <1

Unstable Transistor Oscillator Design1. Select potentially unstable transistor at freq2. Select appropriate transistor configuration3. Draw output stability circle in ΓL plane4. Select appropriate value of ΓL to produce largest
possible negative resistance at input of transistor yielding |ΓL | >1 and Zin < 0
5. Select source tuning impedance Zs as if the circuit was a one-port oscillator by RS + RIN < 0 typically RS = |RIN|/3, RIN < 0 and XS = -XIN
6. Design source tuning and terminating networks with lumped or distributed elements
