Introduction to Radio Frequency Design

-- by Wes Hayward, W7ZOI. A thorough treatment of the fundamental methods of radio frequency design using mathematics as needed to develop intuition for RF circuits and systems. You'll find emphasis on applications of simple circuit models whenever possible. Prepares readers to actually design HF, VHF and UHF equipment.

400 pages. First ARRL Edition, Fourth Printing, © 1994-2004, The American Radio Relay League, Inc. (ISBN: 0-87259-492-0) #4920 -- $39.95

Don't let the title mislead you; it is an in-depth treatment.

Cheers, John

Perhaps a read of chapter 20 "Transistor Feedback Amplifiers" in "Transistors and Active Circuits" by John G Linvill and James F Gibbons would give a good start.

Worked with Wes for a while at TriQuint, good guy. Got him to autograph my copy. He's got a new one out "Experimental Methods in Rf Design" that I haven't had a chance to look at yet.

Robert

Get it. You won't be sorry.

John

Planning on it but Rf work has been very hard to come by around here (Portland OR) the last few years since I left TriQuint. For family reasons I can't move to where it might be more plentiful. So have to tough it out the best I can here.

When I do get a copy I plan on getting it autographed by Wes and Rick Campbell. Rick was working at TriQuint as well but he's still around the area working at Cascade Microtech now.

"Oscillator Design & Computer Simulation" by Rhea. But don't expect it to say that one is better than the other -- it won't.

Vacuum Tube Oscillators, W.A. Edson

the most complete analysis I have seen (eg cf rhea)

Cheers Terry

I understand. I'm not doing any RF work either. But, I enjoy reading about it and the book prompts me to dream of building some of the circuits. It's a good read even if you don't plan to do the work.

I wish I could get my copies autographed.

John

I'd like to say thank you to all guys that have spent some time to reply at my post, sincerely thanks...

I'll check for your indication but I think also a good book is about Benjamin Parzen, I've write about this in other thread, but thisbooks seems untrovable, then, sigh, if anyone have it plz let me know...

Thanks again Fabio

I've got it, in PDF form (14Mb) :)

I also have Heising, Salt and Frerking :)

personally, I think Edsons book has more analytical stuff.

UFFC produced a 20-CD collection, for IIRC US$50 a few years back. so I bought it.

Cheers Terry

PS it would be naughty to give you a copy. But you can probably deduce my email address....

then,

Yup, may be very help for me if you can share the electronic copy... let me know please, I'm searching desperatly...

Tnx Fabio

then,

if you can, send it through RapidShare...

Tnx Fabio

email me.

Cheers Terry

me

at what address...

Tnx fabio

I'll give you a hint (english obviously isnt your first language, so I'll assume you just didnt understand)

my snipped-for-privacy@IEEE.org

Cheers Terry Given

untrovable,

I

let

yep you're right :) well if I understand I've to use underscore... right?

Tnx Fabio

Robert,

Could you drop me a line at j k o l s t a d 7 1 @yahoo.com with your real e-mail address regarding this?

Thanks,

---Joel Kolstad

Try it both ways - the one that isn't right will get bounced. :-)

Cheers! Rich

You probably can, at some cost[1] - find his snail mail address, ask him if he'd be so kind as to autograph your copy for you, and ship it to him in a reusable box and include a return postage sticker so that it doesn't cost him anything.

Good Luck! Rich [1] The price of shipping a book both ways.
