impedance transformation. A passive network cannot have a power gain. Figures 9.9 to
9.20 show that the bandwidth over which a good match is obtained is smaller than the
bandwidth obtained with transformer matching and transmission-line matching, which
are described later in this chapter. The impedance match and insertion loss versus
frequency for the different types of matching network and matching to the large signal
input impedance of the MRF1535NT1 MOSFET is shown in figures 9.9 to 9.20.
