DESIGN THEORY OF OPTIMUM NEGATIVE-RESISTANCE AMPLIFIERS

Abstract

A general amplifier was considered which was obtained by imbedding a linear 1-port device in an arbitrary lossless reciprocal 3-port. The active device is assumed to have a representation of a negative conductance in parallel with a parasitic capacitance. A synthesis method to approach the optimum situation is presented. Other amplifier configurations are considered. In each case, the optimum gain-bandwidth formula, synthesis procedure and some useful design curves are given.
