Is there any simple schematic design of frequency multiplier using transistors to achieve 5 Ghz frequency output- would anyone be kind to share.
The inherent problem is that circuits that operate at such frequencies are not built with "lumped" components like circuits at lower frequencies. At these frequencies you use "distributed" components because the dimensions of the circuit are the same order of magnitude as the wavelength of the signals.Is there any simple schematic design of frequency multiplier using transistors to achieve 5 Ghz frequency output- would anyone be kind to share.
The traditional way was to feed the original frequency into an amplifier tuned to some not too distant harmonic of the original frequency - papabravo's post is the first paragraph of the bible you need to read before plugging the iron in.Is there any simple schematic design of frequency multiplier using transistors to achieve 5 Ghz frequency output- would anyone be kind to share.
There are two ways to use them:You might want to concider one of these:

My small experience is that Mini-Circuits prices are reasonable considering they have done a lot of the hard design for you.

There could well be state of the art PLL chips that make it all easy.
This give me a clue where to start thanks papabravo
