What is Active Components and Passive Components? All electronic circuits, however complicated, contain a few basic components (generally speaking, only five)—three passive and two active components. Though passive components by…
Miscellaneous Devices Articles: Voltage Variable Capacitors: VVC Operation – Voltage Variable Capacitors diodes (VVCs) are also known as variÂcaps, varactors, and as tuning diodes. Basically, a Voltage Variable Capacitors is…
Pulsed Radar System Block Diagram: A very Pulsed Radar System Block Diagram set was shown in Figure 16-1. A more detailed block diagram will now be given, and it will…
Semiconductor Microwave Devices Articles: Trapatt Diode Construction and Working: The Trapatt Diode Construction and Working is derived from and closely related to the IMPATT diode. Indeed, as pointed out near…
Ruby Maser: As was know ferrites of certain materials have atomic systems that can be made to resonate magnetically at frequencies dependent on the atomic structure of the material and…
Gunn Effect: In 1963, Gunn discovered the transferred electron effect which now bears his name. This Gunn Effect is instrumental in the generation of microwave oscillations in bulk semiconÂductor materials.…
Negative Resistance Amplifier: The classical application of the tunnel diode was in microwave oscillators, especially after it was realized that the secret of stable oscillations lay in loosely coupling the…
Parametric Amplifier Types: The basic Parametric Amplifier Types have already been discussed in detail, but several others also exist. They differ from one another in the variable reactance used, the…
