Lumped Multi-Element Z-Y Matching Networks > Rload, Shunt C, Series L, Series C, Shunt L/C to Match Shunt R-C or R-L Device
Description
Given a shunt R-C equivalent input or output circuit of a device, this schematic computes component values of a network in order to conjugately match the device to an output resistance. (The shunt R-C network can be converted to a shunt R-L network if the capacitance is set to a negative value, with formula given on the schematic.) Starting from a resistance, RL, the networks generate the complex conjugate impedance via a shunt C - series L - series C - shunt L ladder network.
 | Note For certain desired admittances, one of the calculated inductor values will be negative. This negative inductor must be replaced with a capacitor. The correct capacitor value when such a replacement is necessary is calculated on the data display. |
Admittances in only one region (hashed in the figure shown here) of the Smith chart can be generated with this network. Rdev must be < RL, where Rdev is the device's resistance and RL is the external load resistance.
Main Schematic Settings
Device equivalent circuit (Shunt R-C or Shunt R-L) component values, load resistance, frequency of match, Q of admittance transformation network
Data Display Outputs
- L and C component values of the network
- Reflection coefficient versus frequency (dB and on a Smith chart) looking back into the network from the output resistor, RL, when the other end of the network is terminated in the device's equivalent circuit
