Has anyone tried one of these preamp designs? I cannot make sense of the use of the extremely hi-mu FT-50-75 cores in this design. http://www.kongsfjord.no/dl/Amplifiers/Ultralinear%202N5109%20And%20

The transformers are standard broadband receiving type transformers, which typically use hi-mu cores. Get a copy of "Transmission Line Transformers" to read about this. Additional comments: I have be

might need a very high-mu core. Thanks for all the feedback everyone. I guess what I have trouble understanding with the transformers is that if we are talking about a 50-ohm system, it has been my

This idea was first outlined, as far as I know, back in about 1986 by Peter Chadwick of 'racal' (I think)..... he called it 'noiseless feedback'. I used it in several of my designs for my company Kan

Hi Ford, IP measurement points are theoretical points where the input signal would generate an undesired product that is equal to the good signal. That can, of course, really never happen in real li

Ford, The intercept points are fictitious. They are calculated by taking a measurement in the linear region of the device under test. The measurement for third-order intercept (TOI) is made with two

Intercept Point values represent no real physical power. They are rather arbitrary numbers calculated from distortion measurement results. It is, therefore, perfectly possible to have such a large n

Steve, I have made hundreds of balanced Norton amplifiers, ones where the windings are consolidated onto just two fair-rite 28430000302 twin hole cores. Also I have experimented with the 4 transforme

...snip... I find the very high TOI of 40-50dBm useful in my application but the rest just makes for meaningless conversation. If you are in a noise limited urban environment even a 20dBm TOI might b

Ford, This may seem like an intuitive way to estimate TOI, but it most likely isn't related to the TOI at all. For example, an amplifier that will produce no more than 0 dBm output no matter how hard

While Dallas Lankford uses FT50-75 toroids in his design of a Norton amplifier, I found an article on www.qrp.pops.net/preamp.htm where a Norton amplifierwith binocular cores BN43-2402 is described (
