Title :
A 5-Watt C-Band FET Amplifier
Abstract :
A GaAs FET amplifier was developed for 5 watts of power output in the 4.4-5.0 GHz band. The amplifier consists of a 1 watt driver module and a 5 watt power booster amplifier containing four FETs in parallel. The six-stage amplifier had a small signal gain of 56 dB, and efficiency of 20%.
