  • Abstract
    The study of a multichannel HEMT mixer Is presented. We discuss the specific advantages offered by multi-channel AlGaAs/GaAs HEMT for millimeter wave mixer realization. In particular, tailoring of adequate transconductance profile is used to optimize mixer performances. We study also the effect of HEMT non linearities (gate to source capacitance and drain current) on mixer characteristics conversion gain and third order Intermodulation point.
