  • Abstract
    The development of enhancement mode PHEMT (E-PHEMT), single supply, 10.5 to 18GHz wide band power amplifier MMICs is described. The amplifier was designed with prematching techniques utilizing a 0.5/spl mu/m GaAs E-PHEMT production process. The designed power amplifier exhibit 13 dB of small signal gain, 26.5dBm 1dB gain compression output power at 16 GHz. This MMIC was fabricated in Agilent´s advanced E-PHEMT process and have been demonstrated in fully production capability.
