Abstract :
A 3.0 V operating GaAs power MESFET for digital/analogue dual-mode hand-held telephones has been developed with state-of-the-art performance using a high-low doped structure grown by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE). For analogue mode, the MESFET tested at a 3.0 V drain bias and a 900 MHz operation frequency, displayed a power-added efficiency of 68% with an output power of 32.0 dBm. For digital mode, the device showed that third-order intermodulation and power-added efficiency at an output power of 27.2 dBm were -33.2 dBc and 38.7%, respectively
