  • Abstract
    A fully integrated high-linearity power amplifier targeting 5.5GHz is implemented in 0.35μm SiGe BiCMOS technology. The presented power amplifier schematic has a two-stage single-ended common-emitter structure with 3.3V voltage supply. The measured maximum output power can reach 16.52dBm, and the PAE is 17.45% at P1dB.
