Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

Calculate Γout given S12 = 0.03, S21 = 3.5, S22 = 0.2, and ΓS = 0.1. What is the significance of this value in the context of output loading?

💡 Hint: Follow the calculation step-by-step and relate it back to the proper connections.

Challenge 2 Hard

A certain RF amplifier has an S11 = 0.2, S12 = 0.05, S21 = 1.8, and S22 = 0.3. Discuss the potential effects on circuit performance if the load is poorly matched.

💡 Hint: Consider how reflections can affect overall power transfer.
