  • Abstract
    In this paper, we analyzed the technology of mm-wave power amplifier MMIC. We developed mm-wave GaAs pHEMT with a power density of 0.6W/mm at 35GHz. A fully monolithic 4-stage 4W mm-wave power amplifier was designed and fabricated The MMIC has an 8.96mm gate periphery on the output stage. Performance achieved was 24dB gain from 33-37GHz with a peak power of >;4. 5W and PAE of 23%.
