/* Effect of Load Mismatch */
|}
The figures below show the frequency response of your RF circuit, in which the yellow signal represents V(2) and the red signal represents V(3). As you can see from the these figures, the input voltage V(2) oscillates as a function of frequency, while the output voltage V(3) is still constant over the entire frequency range. The latter is due to the fact that looking from the output of the T-Line to the left, you see an impedance-matched circuit, and this condition does not change as a function of frequency.
Note that the extreme load values R2 = 1Ω and R2 = 100kΩ approximate the case of open end and short circuits, respectively. For this values, the these limit values, the input voltage fluctuate between 0 and 1V. Keep in mind that [[RF.Spice]] provides special generic Open Stub and Short Stub devices that can be used for this purpose. You will use open and short stub parts later in Tutorial Lesson 3 for impedance matching.
