Development of 2 W UHF power amplifier
Abstract
This paper describes the development of a three-stage transistor amplifier delivering a power output of 2 W in the frequency range 720 MHz-820 MHz. The input and output matching networks of the amplifier are realized on microstrips. Design of a power stage is discussed in detail. The amplifier meets all the design goals e.g., 2 W power output, bandwidth, ease of reproducibility and low cost.
