Abstract
A unitary component operating as a low noise amplifier incorporates several other tuning components in conjunction with an FET. By adjusting the tuning components, the overall amplification and impedance characteristics of the unit can be standardized in spite of typical variations in impedance and amplifying characteristics of the FET by itself. The incorporation of such a drop-in module in a microwave circuit, simplifies testing and repair of the remaining portions of the circuit, since the drop-in modules can easily be tested and adjusted for proper operation in a test jig separate from the actual operating circuit.
