14-GHz band 1 watt GaAs f.e.t. amplifier

Abstract
A 14.0–14.5 GHz 1 W amplifier using 0.5 μm gate length power GaAs f.e.t.s has been developed. The amplifier, consisting of a cascade of three single-ended stages, realises 13 dB small-signal gain, 1.1 W output-power saturation and 39 dBm third-order intermodulation intercept. The circuit design and the microwave performance of the amplifier are discussed.
