  • Abstract
    This paper describes the design of a SOI LDMOST suitable for 2GHz wireless base station power amplifiers. The device uses a split doping extended drain to achieve an optimized structure in terms of resistance, breakdown voltage and self-heating while minimizing Miller capacitance. Simulation indicates that the device features a cutoff frequency above 6GHz, a power gain of 26dB and a RF power density of 0.4 W per mm of channel width under class A operation.
