Design Philosophy of Distributed Matching
Network for Triode Amplifiers
Reactance provided by the tube capacitance
Xc = j Zo tan (2/) L
The length 'L' of the tuned co-axial line is given by:
L = /2 tan-1 Xc / Zo
Where  = wavelength in cm
Xc = reactance due to the inter-electrode capacitance
Zo = characteristic impedance of the line (ohm)
The 50 ohm matching point to tap-out the output power is given by:
L2 = /2 Ri/Rg . [Xc/(Xc2 + Zo2)1/2] cm
Where L2 = distance from the short circuited end to the matching
point.
Ri = Output resistance (50 ohm in this case)
Rg = grid resistance in ohms.
Co-axial structure with centre conductor having circular crosssection and outer conductor of rectangular cross section are
commonly used.

LOW POWER RF CONTROL CIRCUITS
AND DUAL DIRCTIONAL COUPLER
AUTOMATIC LEVEL CONTROL
Output power of an amplifier may
change due to:
o
1)Change in ambient temperature,
2)Change in supply voltages.
Requirement :
Level Stability : < 0.1 dB for 1 dB
change in amplifier gain
