Comment on I want to learn designing IOT PCBs (with 2.4Ghz wireless)
ntn888@lemmy.ml 2 weeks agoWow, thank you for the very detailed post! I see that impedance matching is an important base subject. Is it covered in standard circuit theory textbooks. I’m looking to use this book. I tried to skim the contents but couldn’t find it… Maybe I need to separately learn it? Thanks.

That book is a great start, actually. AC theory is critical in understanding RF circuits.
I noticed there were dedicated sections in that book for LC/RLC circuits. In regards to RF, you might see those referenced as resonant tank circuits, so keep that in mind as you move forward.
You aren’t going to see too much about impedance matching until you start working with transmission lines, as far as I know.
I just looked this up and ready through it and it seems like a good intro. It’ll be confusing unless you have a basic understanding of AC: …cadence.com/…/msa2021-understanding-impedance-ma…

Okay great! Thanks for all the great insight!

Any time! Just learn what you can now and pass the knowledge forward later.
