Conjugate Match
The maximum amount of energy is extracted from the source when the load
is a conjugate match to the source (which also means that the source is a
conjugate match to the load)
The resistive load equals the source resistance.
Any reactive load component is equal in magnitude and opposite in sign
to the source reactance.
So in effect the reactance is canceled out. Note that reactance does not
absorb power but it prevents current from getting to the load.

Matching Circuits
Implementation
Hi pass or low pass configurations
Lumped or distributed components
Transformer implementations (often broadband)
Conventional
Autotransformers (tapped inductors)
Transmission line and toroidal wound
Transmission line matching circuits
Passive matching circuits are reciprocal
Meaning that if you are matched in one direction, you
are matched in the other
Active matching circuits take advantage of device
characteristics and often negative feedback
Example: Emitter followers translate high to low
