Abstract :
GaN MMIC technology is now in production and is revolutionizing microwave Radar and Communication systems. In this paper we present an overview of GaN MMIC technology, focusing on device characteristics, reliability, and high frequency performance. We also introduce emerging GaN technologies such as GaN-on-diamond and the heterogeneous integration of GaN with Silicon.
