  • Abstract
    A Ka-band front end has been developed that integrates a low-loss wide-band monolithic mixer, a two-stage IF amplifier on semi-insulating GaAs, and a lumped-element Gunn LO. Small size (0.5 in/sup 3/) and good performance (11-dB gain with a DSB noise figure of 7 dB) have been obtained by applying synergistic IC construction techniques.
