5 Watts FM RF Amplifier

5 Watts FM RF Amplifier

This
fm rf amplifier uses 2SC1971 transistor to provide 5 watts of output.
Output matching is adjusted via the two 40pF trimmer capacitors
likewise also to the input. Note that the emitter of this transistor is
directly grounded on the heat sink and should have a good thermal
transfer. Driving power of 100 to 200mW can be applied in order to
provide 5watts of output. Use a dummy load to tune this amplifier and
remember that the transistor is biased in Class C, sufficient
filtering should be followed after the output to minimize all the
harmonics. Use ground plane construction technique in the PCB lay-out
for best result, the more the grounding the better. If you have hard
time finding the 10uH rf choke, try to wind 1/2 meter of 0.2mm enamel
wire over a 33K 1/2 watt resistor and solder the coil ends to the legs
of the resistor.
