Q from A to Z

Q from A to Z is an affordable training tool that allows you to move through the material at your own pace, requires no extra work books and provides testing methods on key concepts. Noble Publishing is pleased to announce the inauguration of its new series of tutorial courses in Basic RF and Microwave Design. Q from A to Z, the first CD-ROM training tool in the series, explains the concept of Q and how this concept can be applied to understanding the relationship between loss and bandwidth in filters, the design of oscillators with improved stability and phase noise, and the best possible match for a given bandwidth and load characteristics. The course includes sample problems and solutions, a bibliography of source materials, web links and the complete text of RheaAs reference article, Multimode High-Frequency Inductor Model. This easy to navigate tutorial is designed for beginning wireless and RF engineers and those who wish to review the many forms of Q. No knowledge of higher math required; some familiarity with RF design and measurement terms helpful. Contents include: Introduction; Unloaded Q or Component Q; Loaded Q; and Q and Matching Concepts.
