摘要
A MIC power amplifier with power combining based on InGaP/GaAs HBT is developed and measured for the application of the latest high power amplifier stage of the X-band. A novel InGaP/GaAs HBT power transistor with an on-chip RC stabilization network is used as the power combing cell to improve the stability of the circuit. A compact mi- crostripe line parallel matching network is used to divide and combine the power. By biasing the amplifier at class AB: Vc= 7V, Ic = 230mA,a maximum CW stabile output power of 28.9dBm and a power combine efficiency of 80% are achieved at 8. 1GHz.
