Care must be tak<strong>en</strong> wh<strong>en</strong> comparing the values from Figure 38 to Figure 41. Figure 38 and Figure<br />

39 repres<strong>en</strong>t physical limitations giv<strong>en</strong> by the hardware <strong>de</strong>sign, whereas the appar<strong>en</strong>t output<br />

frequ<strong>en</strong>cy used as limiting factor in Figure 40 and Figure 41 can be chos<strong>en</strong> freely as long as it does<br />

not interfere with the physical limitations. Therefore, the amplitu<strong>de</strong>s may vary according to the<br />

<strong>de</strong>signer’s choice. The scaling laws with increasing levels and the relationship betwe<strong>en</strong> the<br />

requirem<strong>en</strong>ts of the differ<strong>en</strong>t topologies are the main interest in those two last figures.<br />
