Abstract
We review the technological features of our InGaP power HBTs for 5GHz wireless application. The features include self-aligned base-contact and base-mesa formation process, small-sized via holes located between multi-finger transistors, and bias and feedback circuits for the reduction of distortion. These technologies improve both gain and linearity, producing higher power added efficiency (PAE) in power amplifiers.
