2:58 pm Posts: 9 Hello all, Just found this forum...very
nice. For a week now i try to understand the wonder world of micro-strips.
This in combination with the 2SC1971 transistor. I try a lot in RF-SIM99,and
it works fine. I just take a few ohm's for the in- and output impedance.
But now i want to try some for real,but i can't find the data for the
transistor. How do i get the correct impedance from the sheet for
appr. 100MHz And what would be a acceptabe reflection(dB) for wideband
use. I can get from the simulations a reflection of maximun -22dB
from 88-108MHz...isthis acceptabe. I hope to get some info from one
of you Greetings Bert Top fred47 Post

2SC1971 data sheet is particularly sparse - I don't think there's enough
information on the copy I found on the web to allow you to use it in
a simulator. It appears that the device has ceased being manufactured
- do you have a particular reason to use that specific device?
Good Luck, Fred Top IR Post subject: Posted:

at the data sheet of this transistor and the main information is missing
i.e. the S-Paramaters. Therefore, you can't tell what is the
input or output impedance in relation to the frequency. I suggest you
to contact the manufacturer and ask for this data or use an alternative
device which has a data sheet in which S-Parmaters are included.
Good luck! Top Extreme Post subject: Posted:

04, 2007 2:58 pm Posts: 9 Thanks for the reply's guys. The
original 2SC1971 from mitshubishi is no more in production. The ones
now being sold are chinese reproductions,but work just as good. I
made a design by copying some pieces of the www and adapt the strips
some,until it was as good as flat from 88-108MHz. And this on single
side board??? Maybe they don't work as a microstrip,but as a low
Q coil. But my goal was to understand the strips,and make whatever
i want. And match one transistor to the other,without going to 50ohm
again. I have a long way to go Top fred47

Hi! Just a remark, so that you don't go charging off down
the wrong path... Microstrip is defined as a strip of conductor
above a ground plane, separated by a dielectric. So there is no such
thing as microstrip on a single-sided board. I'm not sure if what you
have would be classified as CPW (co-planar waveguide) or not - I've
never done CPW. The equations in the books for microstrip won't
do the job for you. Good Luck! Fred
