Abstract :
Single-stage and two-stage GaAs traveling-wave amplifiers operating with flat gain responses in the 2-20-GHz frequency range are described. The circuits are realized in monolithic form on a 0.1-mm GaAs substrate with 50-Omega input and output lines. Complete gate and drain dc bias circuitry is included on the chip. By cascading these amplifier chips, a 30-dB gain in the 2-20-GHz range is demonstrated, with 9+-1dB noise figure.
