Abstract

This paper describes the design, fabrication and test results of a developed GaAs HBT power amplifier used in a mobile communication system. The circuit topology is presented. This two-stage amplifier has the associated gain of more than 30 dB and 1 dB compression output power of more than 30 dBm and the saturated output power of more than 30 dBm with the maximum power added efficiency of more than 37% at frequency 1800 MHz @ 3.6 V bias. A satisfied yield was obtained on GaAs HBT wafer in 3 inch diameter.
