Abstract

A variable transformer is illustrated to be used primarily with high frequency transistors and other high frequency amplifying means to provide optimum impedance matching characteristics for individual transistors in a circuit rather than trying to design a given circuit to be universally applicable to a range of transistor characteristic values.
