A matching network for performing frequency tuned matching between a source and a load. The matching network includes a first capacitor and first inductor, having fixed values, coupled in series from an input port to an output port. A second capacitor and second inductor, having fixed values, is coupled in series from one of the input port and output port to ground. The input port is adapted to receive a variable frequency RF signal and the output port is adapted to be coupled to a time-variant load impedance. The values of the first inductor and first capacitor are related by a first mathematical relationship, and the values of the second inductor and second capacitor are related by a second mathematical relationship. The substantial impedance range of the matching network enables a match to be maintained over a large fluctuation in load impedance.
