Abstract :
Low-noise amplifiers for u.h.f. colour t.v. broadcasting translator use have been successfully developed by using 1 ¿m gate GaAs m.e.s.f.e.t.s. The obtained performances revealed that a GaAs m.e.s.f.e.t. has low-noise and low intermodulation distortion characteristics, even in the 500¿800 MHz frequency range, compared with a Si bipolar transistor.
