Abstract :
Explict formulas for gain-bandwidth limitations and element values of the Chebyshev and Butterworth bandpass matching networks of two GaAs f.e.t.s in direct cascade are derived. Procedure for gain rolloff compensation using closed-form expressions is also presented. The technique is simple and can be used by nonspecialists without considerable effort.
