  • Abstract
    This paper reports on the design of new power cells based on GaAs PHEMT transistors with 0.25μm gate length in MMIC technology. The design starts from a fishbone power cell initially designed by United Monolithic Semiconductors (UMS). This one allows us to validate the elementary transistor model. This model is used for other power cells design as cascode cell.
