Abstract :
A description is given of a 43-GHz-band balanced low-noise amplifier using high-electron-mobility transistors (HEMTs) with a gate length of 0.25 mu m. To reduce the loss, a 3-dB hybrid circuit formed by waveguide branch lines was used for the input/output sections of the amplifier. The amplifier has a gain of 9 dB, a noise figure of 5 dB or less, and an input/output VSWR (virtual standing-wave ratio) of 1.5 or less from 40 to 45.5 GHz. It has a gain of 10 dB and a noise figure of 4.3 dB or less at -30 degrees C (ambient temperature).<>
