Re: For you designer builders...
A great thing about the LT3045 is that you can parallel them for higher current and even lower noise (with careful PCB layout). John Bennett AE0AM

Re: For you designer builders...
Yep that¡¯s the ticket! I had in the back of my brain designing a board identical to that little guy¡­ that would simply replace the regulator and there it is! I think I could do it for less

Re: For you designer builders...
I think that depends on the circumstances but yes the low noise parts make a much bigger difference. Dr. William J. Schmidt - K9HZ J68HZ 8P6HK ZF2HZ PJ4/K9HZ VP5/K9HZ PJ2/K9HZ VP2EHZ Owner

Re: For you designer builders...
Hi Bill Not sure how true this is but apparently LM317 style regulators are better than the LM7805's.?? Not as good as a dedicated low noise part though for sure. glenn vk3ep

T41 BPF results
These are great, Oliver. If it's okay with you, could you send me the hi-rez versions of the graphs? Al and I would like to include them in the book. BTW, I tweaked the toroids in the LPF board to

Re: FW: [FlexRadioSmartSDR] Adaptive Predistortion Progress
It's different for every different amp design... needs to be tested, BUT IN GENERAL you want enough headroom so that you never reach saturation of the devices... that means PTP power divided by

Re: FW: [FlexRadioSmartSDR] Adaptive Predistortion Progress
*** Does it have to be 1/4? How much improvement would 1/2 of available output give you? I recently saw a new LDMOS device that's rated for 2.5kW CW output. I think it runs off 75V. I was

Re: FW: [FlexRadioSmartSDR] Adaptive Predistortion Progress
Easy to sacrifice gain to get negative feedback (and better linearity) when power isn't an issue and there is excess gain available (e.g. low power stages) Much more expensive and risky to add high
