Abstract :
A complete Tx/Rx module for phased array applications was developed. A multifunction PHEMT MMIC chip set was designed and realized with UMS foundry. A balanced HPA Assembly 2-8GHz was designed for a Tx/Rx module using two HPA and a driver. This component exhibits 35 dB of gain and 8W of output power.
