  • Abstract
    This paper describes the design of a single-ended GaAs FET pre-amplifier using both computer aided device modeling and empirical methods. The amplifiers have an average noise figure of 2.3 dB, gain of 9 /spl plusmn/ 0.5 dB, third-order distortion (M/sub A+B-C/) of -50 dB and input-output return loss of 30 dB or more over the frequency band of 5.9 to 6.4 GHz.
