Abstract: Due to the unprecedented growth in wireless applications over the past decade, development of low-cost solutions for RF and microwave communication systems has become of great importance. This practical new book is the first comprehensive treatment of lumped elements, which are playing a critical role in the development of the circuits that make these cost-effective systems possible. The books offers you an in-depth understanding of the different types of RF and microwave circuit elements, including inductors, capacitors, resistors, transformers, via holes, airbridges, and crossovers. Supported with over 220 equations and more than 200 illustrations, it covers the practical aspects of each element in exceptional detail. No other single volume treats this subject matter in such depth. From materials, fabrication, and analyses - to design, modeling, and physical, electrical, and thermal applications, this unique resource offers you complete coverage of the critical topics you need understand for your work in the field. Offering the most comprehensive, up-to-date body of knowledge on lumped elements, the book is an indispensable professional reference and serves as an excellent text for senior undergraduate and graduate-level courses in RF and microwave circuit design.

Abstract: Approximate design formulas for bandpass filters using parallel coupled stripling stepped impedance resonators (SIR) are derived. The formulas take into account the arbitrary coupling length as well as quarter-wavelength coupling. Some advantages of this filter are its abilities to control spurious response and insertion loss by changing the structure of the resonator. Using the design formulas two experimental filters were designed and fabricated and their performances closely matched design data.
TL;DR: In this article, the desirable features of fully integrated, VLSI-compatible continuous-time filters are discussed, in which MOS transistors are used in place of resistors along with nonlinearity cancellation and on-chip automatic tuning.
Abstract: The desirable features of fully integrated, VLSI-compatible continuous-time filters are discussed. A recently proposed integrated continuous-time filter technique is reviewed, in which MOS transistors are used in place of resistors along with the nonlinearity cancellation and on-chip automatic tuning. The filters obtained using this technique are compared to switched-capacitor filters, digital filters, and continuous-time filters using different techniques. Representative experimental results are given, demonstrating the high performance that can be achieved.
