摘要:
A detector for generating an output signal representative of the power of an input signal comprises an input capacitor coupled to receive the input signal for transmitting alternating current portions of the input signal. A first common-source FET pair have gate terminals coupled to a temperature-compensating circuit for varying the gate-to-source voltage. The drain of one FET is coupled through an intermediate capacitor to ground. That drain is also coupled to a relatively positive voltage source through a series-connected inductor and resistor. The drain of the second FET is also coupled to the voltage source through a resistor. An output capacitor couples the alternating current signal, at the junction between the resistor associated with the first transistor and the inductor, to ground. A differential amplifier and comparator generates an output signal representative of the difference between the signals appearing on the transistor sides of the two resistors.

The disclosed coupler is in a spiral form having approximately 11/4 turns and a length of just over 1/4 wavelength of a designed frequency. The coil includes an interdigitated section with two conductor portions for each conductor. In the overlapped turn portion, the inner conductors are narrower than the outer conductor. Further, conductor pads are disposed adjacent the coupler conductors for connection to associated couplers to vary the bandwidth of the coupler.

A microstrip filter having a plurality of parallel resonant conductors mounted on a dielectric substrate is tuned by applying a portion of a hot-melt type glue to the filter surface. The glue is melted and then deposited on the conductors and spread across and along the conductors until the filter has a desired frequency response. The glue is then cooled until it becomes solid.

A microwave-frequency feedback amplifier circuit has a cascode amplifier with a first field-effect transistor (FET) having a gate for receiving a signal to be amplified, a source coupled to a reference voltage, and a drain. A second FET has a source coupled to the drain of the first FET, a source coupled to the reference voltage, and a drain. A transformer includes a first inductor with a first terminal coupled to the drain of the second FET and a second terminal for outputting an amplified input signal. A second inductor has a first terminal coupled to the second terminal of the first inductor, and a second terminal coupled to the reference voltage. A feedback circuit couples the drain of the second FET to the gate of the first FET.
