  • Abstract
    This paper describes the design and development of a multistage low noise High Electron Mobility Transistor (HEMT) amplifier that exhibits state-of-the-art performance over the frequency range of 36-40 GHz. The amplifier utilizes a series of three single ended stages that are each designed around TRW´s HEMT device. Typical performance to date has been 15-17 dB gain with an associated noise figure of 4.0 to 4.6 dB.
