  • Abstract
    The design and performance of high-efficiency, broadband (up to 7 GHz), monolithic Ka-band amplifiers using doped channel power pseudomorphic high-electron-mobility transistors (HEMTs) are discussed. Amplifiers with output powers as high as 500 mW and power-added-efficiencies as high as 40% were demonstrated.<>
