Feedback Circuit:
Your Ramsey LPA1 Power Booster Amplifier has been designed to give you
great amplification over a wide range of frequencies. Included in the design
of the circuit is a feedback loop consisting of the parts R8 and C5. You must
decide whether or not to include the feedback circuit into your kit.
According to the table below, with the feedback circuit in place, you may
experience a lower gain at frequencies up to 500Mhz. However, you will
note that this gain is relatively steady over this range. The loop also provides
slightly higher gain above 500Mhz. Please consider carefully which
frequency you are using and how much gain you require from the circuit.
Installing the feedback circuit has proven to add more circuit stability and
immunity to spurious signals. If you are experiencing difficulty with spurious
signals, it is a good idea to install the feedback circuit.
A good rule of thumb is to complete the circuit including the feedback circuit.
If you need more gain at lower frequencies, you are then able to remove the
feedback components.
