Abstract :
This paper describes the design, implemental ion and performance of a power distributed amplifier with a minimum gain of 5dB , input and output VSWR less than 1.5:1, and greater than 22dBm of 1dB compressed power over the 2 to 18GHz band. This amplifier makes use of several circuit design advances to improve both bandwidth and power capability and measures 1.0mm by 1.4mm (1.4 sq. mm).
