Impedance matching is setting the input impedance (load) equal to the fixed output impedance (source) to which it is connected, in order to maximize the power transfer.
Matching is obtained when Zload = Zsource.
In audio and sound engineering we have really no impedance matching. There is only impedance bridging. Zload >> Zsource.

Scroll down to related links and look at "Impedance bridging - Wikipedia".

Why is impedance matching used in electronics?

Impedance matching is used in electronics to get an electronic device with an input and output source to work. Impedance matching will give the electronic it's maximum transfer of voltage. An example of this are FM radio receivers.


Why emitter follower preferred to transforms as a impedance matching?

because it has high input impedance and low output impedance


What are the importance of impedance matching in amplifiers?

Two reasons. 1...When impedance of source and destination match, power transfer is maximum. 2...If a long transmission line is involved, the characteristic impedance of the line must match the destination impedance, or reflections will occur on the line.


What is passive amplification?

Impedance matching network perform the passive amplification.


What is meant by matching?

Impedance matching is the electronics design practice of setting the input impedance of an electrical load equal to the fixed output impedance of the signal source to which it is connected. That is done usually in order to maximize the power transfer and to minimize all reflections from the load. Zinput = Zoutput.


Can an impedance matching device reduce electrical costs?

An impedance matching device is used to test the resistance, inductive reactant and capacitive reactant in a circuit. If one component did not match the impedance of the conductor, some of the current will be lost by the conductors itself. In conclusion if electricity is lost, the component needs to meet its regular voltage. It consumes more voltage than expected because of the loss. Impedance matching device can actually reduce electrical cost.

Why impedance matching are important in communication circuit?

to reduce reflection loss from the load


What is impedance coupled amplifier?

The purpose of impedance matching is to provide for the highest efficiency between either the stages of an amplifier circuit or from a device to the amplifier for the same purpose. Impedance matching us used to make the circuits compatible based on electrical characteristics of a particular circuit from one section (or stage) to the next.


How do you get sony ecm 200 mic to work with windows 7?

Most likely you will need a preamp or at least an impedance matching circuit between the mic and the mic in of the computer.


How do you make an impedance- and level-matching transformer?

You'll need to decide *which* one you want. An impedance-matching transformer has a defined primary-to-secondary turns ratio. This *may* give the level match that you want, it may not. Alternately, you can design for a level match, which also *may* give the impedance ratio you want, it may not. It also has a defined turns ratio, but this may not meet an impedance-matching requirement. For impedance matching find the ratio of impedances, take its square root, and use that as the turns ratio: 2400 ohms to 600 ohms has an impedance ratio of 4:1, so its turns ratio will be (sqrt4) = 2:1. To level-shift 1.23 volts (+4 dB) to 300 mV (-10 dB), the ratio is (1.23/0.3) approx 4:1. From the above, you could match 2400 ohms to 600 ohms, but *not* +4 dB to -10 dB with the one transformer.


The characteristic impedance of paired copper wire is?

The characteristic impedance of paired copper wire is typically around 100-120 ohms. This value is important in determining signal integrity and impedance matching in communication systems.
