High voltage distributed amplifier

David A. Willems, Inder J. Bahl, Kelly Wirsing

Abstract

Measured results are presented for a novel distributed amplifier which uses voltage supplies of four to six times that of a typical FET amplifier, gives multioctave bandwidth and small size. Additionally, this amplifier consumes no more DC power than an amplifier operating at a 2–3 V bias and it can be readily produced in the MMIC configuration.
