Title: James Andrew Martin, III: Innovator in Tunable Microwave Devices
Introduction
James Andrew Martin, III is a notable inventor based in Londonderry, NH (US). He has made significant contributions to the field of microwave technology, holding 2 patents that showcase his innovative approach to dynamic impedance matching networks.
Latest Patents
One of his latest patents is focused on tunable microwave devices with an auto-adjusting matching circuit. This invention provides an apparatus that includes an input port and a dynamic impedance matching network. The network is capable of determining a mismatch at the input port and dynamically changing the RF match using at least one matching element, which includes a voltage tunable dielectric capacitor. The matching network can be a 'Pi', 'T', or “ladder” type network. Additionally, the apparatus may comprise at least one directional coupler that collects signals by sampling a portion of an incident signal, a reflected signal, or both. The invention also includes a control and power control & logic unit (PC LU) that converts input analog signals into digital signals, senses VSWR phase and magnitude, and processes the digital signals using an algorithm to provide a voltage value. These voltage values can then be compared to values from the coupler, and once matched, they are passed to a High Voltage Application Specific Integrated Circuit (HV ASIC) to distribute compensatory voltages to the matching network elements.
Career Highlights
James has worked with several prominent companies, including Paratek Microwave Incorporated and Blackberry Corporation. His experience in these organizations has contributed to his expertise in microwave technology and innovation.
Collaborations
Some of his notable coworkers include Izz Khayo and Cornelis Frederik Du Toit, who have collaborated with him on various projects throughout his career.
