  • Abstract
    A design for a compound FET using depletion-mode gallium arsenide MESFETs and diodes is presented. The compound FET exhibits a linearised relationship between the drain and source currents and the applied gate-source voltage. Simulations confirm good linearity and frequency characteristics for the compound FET to 10 GHz.
