  • Abstract
    Hybrid integrated parametric amplifiers (paramps) have been developed for different S-Band frequencies. The amplifier circuits were etched on a 1 in. x 1 in. copper-on-alumina substrate. Voltage gain-bandwidth products of 800 MHz and noise figures as low as 1.2 dB were measured. An IMPATT-Diode oscillator was used as the pump source. The paramp noise problem due to the IMPATT oscillator was determined and remedied.
