Abstract
A miniaturized 6.5 -16 GHz power amplifier module, which includes T/R switch, dual polarity power supply, switch driver and gate functions was designed using two types of broadband MMIC amplifiers. The two cascade designs were a 900 µm -1200 µm FET amplifier and a 300 µm -300 µm feedback amplifier which were used to provide large and small gain functions respectively. The module exhibits 35 dB of gain, 1 watt power output and 55 dB T/R switch isolation.
