Applications literature: Basic concepts of microwave devices and instrumentation

Included in this 170-page catalog are more than 30 pages of material explaining the theory and operation of various microwave devices and instruments. The discussion of solid-state phase-locked signal sources starts with a description of an oscillator system, and goes on to a detailed discussion of FM noise. Various types of coaxial attenuators are described, including fixed, variable, lossy wall, variable-coupler, low-loss cutoff, step, and voltage-controllable types.
