  • Abstract
    This paper describes a 7 GHz GaAs FET power amplifier operating with -2lV D.C. power supply without DC-DC converter or voltage dropping resistor. The amplifier is to be used as a direct replacement of an Injection Locked Amplifier in a 7 GHz video microwave radio. Direct series connection of two power GaAs FETs is used to achieve a high voltage operating condition, the details of circuit design and amplifier performance is presented.
