  • Abstract
    This paper studies the third-order intermodulation (IMD) products of dual-gate GaAs FET amplifier as a function of device bias and input power level. A l2GHz variable gain amplifier employing a dual-gate FET has been designed using a novel synchronized biasing technique to achieve better than 40 dBc IMD over a 30 dB gain control range.
