How to Design With Field Effect Transistors

    • 1). Determine allowable level of instability of the circuit. Since all circuits will have some form of instability, lowering the stability factor to the extent possible should be computed by carefully selecting the source and load admittances. This is usually achieved by use of feedback mechanisms employed in transistor design.

    • 2). Determine if feedback should be employed to achieve stability. Feedback should only be applied if there is need to achieve stability in high-frequency tuned amplifiers, input-output isolation or for the purpose of altering the gain and terminal admittances of transistors in a circuit.

    • 3). Compute the source and load admittances. The source and load of a circuit will determine the stability of a circuit to a certain degree and thus are important considerations when still trying to stabilize a circuit.

    • 4). Use an appropriate network design while keeping in mind the source and load admittances you just computed. For example, the two-port amplifier design is used for high-frequency circuits.
