Using the scattering parameter data for the GaAs MESFET given in Table 11.7, design an amplifier for maximum gain at 8.0 GHz. Design matching sections using open-circuited shunt stubs, and compute the gain. Check the stability of the resulting design using CAD modeling over the frequency range of 1-12 GHz, or by using stability circles at a few frequencies.
