  • Abstract
    The design and development of microwave integrated-circuit (MIC) tunnel-diode amplifiers for use in integrated broad-band high-performance receivers is described. In particular, this paper describes the design, construction, and performance of thin-film microstrip tunnel-diode amplifiers operating in the 8-to 12- and 6-to 8-GHz bands, respectively, with noise figures in the 5-to 7-dB range.
