Abstract :
The letter describes a novel variation of the distributed amplifier circuit which enables the upper operating frequency to be increased well beyond the limit set previously by the gate capacitance in a conventional circuit design. The modified design uses bandpass instead of lowpass filter structures. A 17-30 GHz experimental amplifier has been designed and constructed as a hybrid demonstrator
