Abstract

See full text

A transmit drive circuit with high signal to noise and frequency agility. In one embodiment, a transmit circuit includes a digital to analog converter, an amplifier, and a signal to noise enhancer, the signal to noise enhancer being a nonlinear passive device that attenuates low-power signals while transmitting high power signals with little loss. The signal to noise enhancer may be fabricated as a thin film of yttrium iron garnet (YIG) epitaxially grown on a gadolinium gallium garnet (GGG) substrate, the GGG substrate secured to a microwave transmission line from the input to the output of the signal to noise enhancer, such that the thin film of yttrium iron garnet is close to the transmission line.
