Abstract :
A high gain wideband differential amplifier with a new circuit configuration is proposed and monolithically integrated by using 0.7 μm-gate GaAs MESFET IC technology. The fabricated IC exhibited gain of 16.7 dB and bandwidth of 3.2 GHz. A gain twice that of a conventional differential GaAs-MESFET amplifier was achieved with small bandwidth degradation
