Magnetic Materials for Broadband Transmission Line Transformers
نویسنده
چکیده
Ferrite and iron powder magnetic materials were developed to support a wide range of components, including inductors, EMI suppressors, conventional transformers and transmission line transformers (TLTs). This article deals with transmission line transformers, presenting the observations and conclusions of the author, reached after extensive experimental research into the behavior and performance of these devices in broadband applications.

AN749: Broadband Transformers and Power Combining Techniques for RF
The input and output transformers are among the most critical components in the design of a multi-octave amplifier. The total performance of the amplifier (linearity, efficiency, VSWR, gain flatness) will depend on their quality. Transformers with high impedance ratios and for low impedances are more difficult to design in general. In the transmission line transformers very low line impedances ...

The first appearance of the broadband transmission line transformer occurred in 1944, in a paper published by George Guanella [1] in the BraunBoveri Review. In that paper, he expounded the principles of this broadband impedance matching device and is considered the inventor. His goal was to design a broadband balun (balanced-to-unbalanced) for the HF band, matching the balanced impedance of 960...

Although these devices have been widely used in solid-state circuitry or in matching transmission lines to antennas, there has been little information available that deals with the aspect of design and application of practical hardware. As is well-known, many companies are reluctant to publish their design and development work for fear of “giving away” their hard-earned technology to competitor...

Abstract: Transmission-line transformers are circuits useful for microwave impedance matching applications due to their broad operating bandwidth. Multimode feed network is composed of two substructures, which are constituted by the transmission-line transformer. Beginning with the broadband transmission-line transformer with 4:1 impedance transformation, supposing the currents on the two lines...

Bell Laboratories (Retired) and Consultant T his paper presents an easily understood analysis of the transmission line transformer (TLT). It also includes some history and the author's suggestion for the future of these devices. It is hoped that future device development and application will be encouraged. The TLT transmits the energy from input to output by a transmission line mode and not by ...
