Abstract :
A two-stage amplifier on AlGaN/GaN heterostructure transistors has been designed for the use within 5-7 GHz frequency range. Linear gain amounts to 20±1.0 dB, input reflection factor does not exceed 10 dB. With input power of 200 mW, the output power of the amplifier is not less than 5.4 W, coefficient of efficiency is not less than 28%. Area of QMIC is 2.2×3.8mm.
