Package Electrical Modeling, Thermal Modeling, and Processing for GaAs Wireless Applications (Hardcover, 1999 ed.): Dean L.... Package Electrical Modeling, Thermal Modeling, and Processing for GaAs Wireless Applications (Hardcover, 1999 ed.)
Dean L. Monthei
R3,109 Discovery Miles 31 090 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

This book discusses the practical aspects of electrical and thermal modeling of packages. In addition, processing concerns for plastic packaged GaAs parts are also covered. The book emphasizes low cost industry standard packages. However, the principles involved translate well to other categories of packages. Digital issues such as crosstalk are well documented in other books and are therefore not covered in detail in this text. The principles for generation of equivalent circuit package models applies to both digital and analog parts. Digital designers and packaging engineers should still find this text useful. Subtleties often overlooked by standard methods of modeling packages for digital applications are considered and will become more important to the digital packaging engineer as frequencies continue to increase. It is hoped this book will be useful to both microwave and digital integrated circuit (Ie) designers as well as packaging engineers. In the past these disciplines were distinct. Packaging engineers typically were concerned with only materials and mechanical issues of the package. As long as there was an electrical connection made from the die to the external pin, packaging engineers had the freedom to do anything they wanted between these two points. At high frequency the issues change. Packaging engineers now have to work with die level designers to either create a package that performs well at high frequencies or to use readily available low cost packages that happen to meet the needs of the application.

High-Frequency Characterization of Electronic Packaging (Hardcover, 1998 ed.): Luc Martens High-Frequency Characterization of Electronic Packaging (Hardcover, 1998 ed.)
Luc Martens
R3,060 Discovery Miles 30 600 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

High-Frequency Characterization of Electronic Packaging will be of interest to researchers and designers of high-frequency electronic packaging. Understanding high-frequency behavior of packaging is of growing importance due to higher clock-speeds in computers and higher data transmission rates in broadband telecommunication systems. Basic knowledge of the high-frequency behavior of packaging and interconnects is, therefore, indispensable for the design of future telecommunication and computer systems. High-Frequency Characterization of Electronic Packaging gives the reader an insight into how high-frequency characterization of electronic packaging should be done and describes the problems that have to be tackled, especially in performing accurate measurements on modern IC-packages and in determination of circuit models. High-Frequency Characterization of Electronic Packaging is conceived as a comprehensive guide for the start of research and to help in performing high-frequency measurements. Important notions in high- frequency characterization such as S-parameters, calibration, probing, de-embedding and measurement-based modeling are explained. The described techniques are illustrated with several up-to-date examples.

R1,681 Discovery Miles 16 810 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

This book is the result of the contributions coming from the more than thirty key rd speakers of the 3 international Workshop on Nonlinear Microwave Magnetics held in th Roma, Italy from the 3rd to the 6 of October 1995. Since the 1990, in Ulyanovsk, when the Russian Academy of Sciences promoted the first Workshop of the series, the basic idea was to have a sort of Institutional Meeting collecting Scientists of the Magnetics Community devoted to Spin Wave Electronics at Microwave Frequencies. It was a succesful organization, and the birth of an effective interaction between eastern and western researchers overcame the meaning of the Workshop itself. Three years later, in Irvine, California, 1993, the Spin Wave Community was joined again. It was clear that the growing interest on hot topics of Nonlinear Microwave Magnetics involving both, applicative and fundamental aspects of microwave magnetic media, favoured the organization of further meetings on the same subject. So far, during the social dinner, in the middle between a serious proposal and the joke encouraged by the Californian Wine, Roma was proposed as the third place for the Workshop. Day after day, the joke became serious, and it was possible to solve the financial and logistic problems in time for the predicted deadline.

This is the first book to provide comprehensive coverage of the basic theory of propagation in planar waveguides and devices. It offers an accessible and thorough self-contained guide to the understanding and solution of theoretical and practical design problems, concentrating on single-mode buried channel devices fabricated in silica-based technologies. Essential analytical and numerical techniques for determining practical waveguide attributes such as mode propagation, cutoff-wavelength, substrate leakage, bend loss, scattering due to surface roughness and fibre splicing optimization are given. The emphasis is on simple descriptions associated with straightforward analytical and numerical quantification, together with tables of parameter values for practical waveguides. Several basic passive devices are covered in detail, including X- and Y-junctions and evanescent single-mode couplers, as well as optimal curved paths for connecting arrays of these devices. Together these design recipes provide a prescription for total device design, including input, output and connecting waveguides. These planar waveguides and devices are key components of both the photonic chip and the hybrid photonic/electronic chip, which will emerge as hardware for incorporation into future optical communications systems within the information superhighway.

T. G. Roer
R4,626 Discovery Miles 46 260 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

This book deals with microwave electronics, that is to say those components of microwave circuits that generate, amplify, detect or modulate signals. It is based on a course given in the Electrical Engineering Department of Eindhoven University since 1985 and on about twenty years of experience in the microwave field. Somewhat to my surprise I found that there were hardly any textbooks that addressed the specific properties and demands of microwave devices, including vacuum devices and their interactions with circuits. Numerous books exist on semiconductor electronic devices, dealing in an excellent way with the basic device physics, but being somewhat brief on typical micro wave aspects. On the other hand there are also many books that concentrate on electromagnetic theory and passive circuits, treating devices without reference to the underlying physics. In between there are some entirely devoted to a particular device, for example, the GaAs MESFET. With regard to tubes the situation is even worse: books that treat the basic principles are usually quite old and modern books often concentrate on specific devices, like high power tubes. So it seems that there is room for a book like this one. Its aim is to provide an elementary understanding ofmicrowave electronic devices, both vacuum and semiconductor, on the one hand in relation to the basic physics underlying their operation and on the other in relation to their circuit applications."

Composite Media with Weak Spatial Dispersion (Hardcover): Constantin Simovski Composite Media with Weak Spatial Dispersion (Hardcover)
Constantin Simovski
R4,276 Discovery Miles 42 760 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

This book presents a modern theory of so-called weak spatial dispersion (WSD) in composite media of optically small inclusions without natural magnetism and optical nonlinearity. WSD manifests in two important phenomena called bianisotropy and artificial magnetism, whose microscopic origin is thoroughly studied in this book. The theory of this book is applicable to the natural media with WSD, such as chiral materials. However, emphasis is given to artificial media, too, with the idea to engineer needed electromagnetic properties. The text describes a homogenization model of effectively continuous media with multipole electromagnetic response, taking into account the interface effects. Another model is developed for so-called metamaterials in which artificial magnetism can be a resonant phenomenon and may result in the violation of Maxwell's boundary conditions and other challenges. The book will hopefully improve the understanding of WSD and help readers to correctly describe and characterize metamaterials.

Microwave NDT (Hardcover, 1992 ed.): N. Ida Microwave NDT (Hardcover, 1992 ed.)
N. Ida
R6,020 Discovery Miles 60 200 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

Microwave testing has been paid only scant attention in the literature as a method for nondestructive testing of materials, yet it offers some attractive features, especially for the testing of composite and other non-metallic materials. Microwave techniques have been used in a large number of applications that can be classified as nondestructive testing applications, ranging from large scale remote sensing to detection of tumors in the body. This volume describes a unified approach to microwave nondestructive testing by presenting the three essential components of testing: theory, practice, and modelling. While recognizing that each of these subjects is wide enough to justify a volume of its own, the presentation of the three topics together shows that these are interrelated and should be practiced together. While few will argue against a good theoretical background, modelling and simulation of the testing environment is seldom part of the NDT training in any method, but particularly so in microwave testing. The text is devided in four parts. The first part presents the field theory background necessary for understanding the microwave domain. The second part treats microwave measurements as well as devices and sources and the third part discusses practical tests applicable to a variety of materials and geometries. The fourth part discusses modelling of microwave testing. Each chapter contains a bibliography intended to expand on the material given and, in particular, to point to subjects which could not be covered either as not appropriate or for lack of space. For engineers, applied physicsts, material scientists.

One of us (FAB) published a book Problems in Electronics with Solutions in 1957 which became well established and ran to five editions, the last revised and enlarged edition appearing in 1976. When the first edition was written it covered almost the complete undergraduate electronics courses in engin eering at universities. One book, at a price students can afford, can no longer cover an undergraduate course in electronics. It has therefore been decided to produce a book covering one important section of such a course using the experience gained and a few problems from previous editions of Problems in Electronics with Solutions. The book is based largely on problems collected by us over many years and given to undergraduate electronic and electrical engineers. Its purpose is to present the problems, together with a large number of their solutions, in the hope that it will prove valuable to undergraduates and other teachers. It should also be useful for Master's degree students in electronic and electrical engineering and physics, research workers, engineers and scientists in industry and as a reference source."

R1,540 Discovery Miles 15 400 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

An elective course in the final-year BEng progamme in electronic engin eering in the City Polytechnic of Hong Kong was generated in response to the growing need of local industry for graduate engineers capable of designing circuits and performing measurements at high frequencies up to a few gigahertz. This book has grown out from the lecture and tutorial materials written specifically for this course. This course should, in the opinion of the author, best be conducted if students can take a final-year design project in the same area. Examples of projects in areas related to the subject matter of this book which have been completed successfully in the last two years that the course has been run include: low-noise amplifiers, dielectric resonator-loaded oscillators and down converters in the 12 GHz as well as the 1 GHz bands; mixers; varactor-tuned and non-varactor-tuned VCOs; low-noise and power amplifiers; and filters and duplexers in the 1 GHz, 800 MHz and 500 MHz bands. The book is intended for use in a course of forty lecture hours plus twenty tutorial hours and the prerequisite expected of the readers is a general knowledge of analogue electronic circuits and basic field theory. Readers with no prior knowledge in high-frequency circuits are recom mended to read the book in the order that it is arranged. ~ ______ In_t_ro_d_u_c_tl_*o_n ______ ~1 ~ 1.
