Question 374

How does an impedance-matching circuit transform a complex impedance to a resistive impedance?

  1. It introduces negative resistance to cancel the resistive part of impedance
  2. It introduces transconductance to cancel the reactive part of impedance
  3. It cancels the reactive part of the impedance and changes the resistive part to the desired valueCorrect answer
  4. Reactive currents are dissipated in matched resistances

Explanation

A matching network is built entirely from reactances. It adds a reactance equal and opposite to the load's reactive component so the two cancel, and it transforms the remaining resistive part up or down to the value the source requires.
