This biasing arrangement is only practical in low and
medium power amplifiers, since the minimum current
required through the diode must exceed l

.
Gain leveling across the band is achieved with simple RC
networks in series with the bases, in conjunction with
negative feedback. The amplitude of the out-of-phase
voltages at the bases is inversely proportional to the
frequency as a result of the series inductance in the feedback
loop and the increasing input impedance of the transistors
at low frequencies. Conversely, the negative feedback lowers
the effective input impedance presented to the source (not
the input impedance of the device itself) and with proper
voltage slope would equalize it. With this technique, it is
possible to maintain an input VSWR of 1.5:1 or less from
1.6 to 30 MHz.
Impedance Matching and Transformers
Matching of the input and output impedances to 50 ohms,
as well as the interstage matching, is accomplished with
broadband transformers (Figures 3 and 4).
Normally only impedance ratios such as 1:1, 4:1, 9:1, etc.,
are possible with this technique, where the low impedance
winding consists of metal tubes, through which an
appropriate number of turns of wire is threaded to form the
high-impedance winding. To improve the broadband
characteristics, the winding inductance is increased with
magnetic material. An advantage of this design is its
suitability for large-quantity manufacturing, but it is difficult
to find low-loss ferrites with sufficiently high permeabilities
for applications where the physical size must be kept small
