Broad-band GaAs monolithic amplifier using negative feedback
Abstract
A monolithic amplifier covering the 1-7 GHz frequency band has been fabricated using negative feedback. Small signal power gain of 6.0 dB + or - 0.2 dB was achieved with maximum input and output VSWR of 2.3:1 and 1.7:1, respectively. Design considerations and processing techniques for active and passive elements are presented along with detailed performance data.
