Casio fx-3650p and HP 21S: Minimum Loss Matching

Casio fx-3650p and HP 21S: Minimum Loss Matching



This program takes the incoming impedances Z0 (from left) and Z1 (from right), and determines the resistance R1 and R2, with the corresponding minimum loss.  The program assumes that Z0 and Z1 are both positive and Z0 ≥ Z1. 

Formulas Used:

R1 = Z0 * √(1 – Z1/Z0)
R2 = Z1 / √(1 – Z1/Z0)
Minimum loss = 20 * log (√(Z1/Z0) + √(Z1/Z0 -1))

Casio fx-3650P

Input:  X = Z0, Y = Z1
Program (49 steps):

? → X : ? → Y : Y ÷ X → M :
X √ ( 1 – M → A
Y √ ( 1 – M → B
20 log ( √ M ^-1 + √ ( M ^-1 – 1 → C

HP 21S

Input:  Z0 gets stored in register 0, Z1 gets stored in register 1

Program (44 steps):
