Abstract
Recent results are presented in the development of multi-stage GaAs FET power amplifiers operating in the 12 to 16 GHz frequency band. Microstrip circuit level power combining is used to achieve 4.5 W output power with 26 dB gain at 13.3 GHz with an efficiency of 15.8%, and a 1 dB bandwidth of 1.7 GHz.
