  • Abstract
    The microwave performance of GaAs FET´s is reviewed and examples of their application in systems operating up to X-band frequencies discussed. Examples of amplifiers (one giving 42 dB gain at 11.2 GHz) and oscillators operating at frequencies hitherto unattainable by 2-port solid state devices are used to illustrate the performance and potential of GaAs FET´s in microwave systems.
