2-18 GHz distributed amplifier in hybrid form
Abstract
Practical results for a four-stage hybrid distributed amplifier built on 25.4 mm-square alumina substrate using AT10600 MESFETs are presented. The power gain is (4.5 + or 1.5) dB from 2 to 18 GHz with input and output return loss of better than 10 dB. The noise figure across that band is better than 6.3 dB.
