Abstract
A low cost X-Band solid state transmitter has been successfully demonstrated for low volume commercial applications. Advanced modeling techniques, novel circuit design, concurrent specification flowdown and automated processing technologies were utilized to develop a robust design which maximized yield and achieved the low cost goals required for solid state transmitter amplification in low volume commercial applications.<>
