Computer-aided amplifier design in BASIC
Abstract
The report covers six computer programs which may be used as design aids in the synthesis of active or passive linear two-port networks. These programs may be used in designs for any device which can be described by a set of two-port S-parameters. The program PARAM permits conversion of other two-port parameter sets to S-parameters. The TRANSAMP program provides stability information and constant gain contours. TRANSG computes the transducer gain of a two-port network from reflection coefficients. TRANZ computes the input or output reflection coefficients and impedances. TRANSFIX computes gain circles for specified termination impedances. TGAIN computes the transducer gain of a circuit having fixed-topology transmission line matching networks. Two sample designs are given to illustrate the use of the programs. A complete listing of all the programs is included.
