  • Abstract
    Extremely small GaAs PA has been implemented using the AlN multilayer MCM for 0.9 GHz digital cellular phones. The present PA exhibited the efficiency of 49% with drain supply voltage as low as 3.6 V. The PA was designed to provide the matching circuits with the maximum gain at the input and the minimum intermodulation distortion at the output.<>
