Abstract
An advanced MMIC (monolithic microwave integrated circuit) amplifier providing a 20 dB gain block over the 2-20 GHz frequency range is described. The chip requires only three external bias capacitors and is well suited to automatic assembly. By simultaneously offering improved gain, power, and circuit density in the 2-20 GHz range, a significant advancement in single chip performance has been achieved.<>
