  • Abstract
    A fully integrated K band high power amplifier was designed and fabricated in 0.18 um CMOS technology. Some design and layout techniques are proposed to reduce the DC bias complexity of this 8-way combined high power amplifier. The measurement result shows that this amplifier achieves 20 dBm saturation output power, 6 GHz 3-dB bandwidth, and flat gain response from 20.4 GHz to 24.1 GHz.
