About

UCL's Radio Frequency Circuits and Devices short course will give you a good grounding in a range of RF (radio frequency) devices including the fundamentals of device physics, RF circuits, system architectures and noise measurement techniques.

Overview

UCL offers the Radio Frequency Circuits and Devices programme.

Key facts

  • You'll learn about impedance matching, stability and noise figure for amplifier circuit design.
  • This will be consolidated with a full-day computer simulation exercise where you'll perform RF amplifier design tasks using the industry standard software package Agilent ADS. 

Programme Structure

Courses include:

  • Fabrication of passive elements: inductors, capacitors and resistors
  • Review of key aspects of semiconductor physics: band structure, effective mass and mobility, quantum wells and tunnelling
  • Two-terminal devices: transferred electron devices (Gunn diodes), IMPATT diodes, varactors, PIN diodes, tunnel diodes and quantum tunnel diodes
  • Overview of different transistor technologies for RF/microwave applications
  • Impedance matching techniques (two-element L network, three-element matching, designing with Smith Chart, transmission-line matching network)
