An analytical thermal and stress analysis tool for die attach optimization in GaN power amplifier (PA) applications

2012 IEEE 14th Electronics Packaging Technology Conference (EPTC), 2012
Die attach is a crucial ingredient of the overall solution to ensure that a PA device can function with acceptable junction temperature during peak power operation over the target service life, while mitigating thermo-mechanical stresses incurred by the mismatch of coefficients of thermal expansion between GaN device and substrate materials during ...

A 160-183 GHz 0.24-W (7.5% PAE) PA and 0.14-W (9.5% PAE) PA, High-Gain, G-band Power Amplifier MMICs in 250-nm InP HBT

2020 IEEE/MTT-S International Microwave Symposium (IMS), 2020
Two high-gain, high power-added-efficiency (PAE) G-band solid-state power amplifier (SSPA) MMICs operating between 160–183 GHz are reported. Both utilize an identical five-stage gain-lane, and on-chip combining of these gain-lanes satisfies the output power (Pout) objectives. The first result is a 0.24-W PA using 4-way power combining.

A 140-GHz 0.25-W PA and a 55-135 GHz 115-135 mW PA, High-Gain, Broadband Power Amplifier MMICs in 250-nm InP HBT

2019 IEEE MTT-S International Microwave Symposium (IMS), 2019
Two high-gain, broadband power amplifier MMICs are reported. The first result is a 140-GHz 0.25-W PA. It utilizes 5-gain stages and 4-way power combining. S 21 gain is 29.4-dB. It demonstrates over 0.21-W P out across 110-150 GHz. 0.25-W P out at 140-GHz requires 4-dBm P in – the associated gain is 16-dB with 7.0% PAE. The 140-GHz OP 1dB 1-dB gain

A 26 GHz Doherty power amplifier and a fully integrated 2×2 PA in 0.15μm GaN HEMT process for heterogeneous integration and 5G

2018 IEEE MTT-S International Wireless Symposium (IWS), 2018
A 26 GHz Doherty power amplifier MMIC and a fully integrated 2×2 PA array based on the DPA are presented in this paper. The Doherty power amplifier using 0.15μm GaN HEMT technology, achieves maximum small signal gain of 13.6 dB and saturated output power of over 32 dBm in 24–28 GHz, with peak PAE of 21.7%, and 6 dB back-off PAE of 20% at 26 GHz.

Real-time FPGA-based baseband predistortion of W-CDMA 3GPP high-efficiency power amplifiers: Comparing GaN HEMT and Si LDMOS predistorted PA performances

2009 European Microwave Conference (EuMC), 2009
We carry out a comparative design study on two high-efficiency power amplifiers (a second-harmonic tuning LD-MOS and a Doherty GaN-based amplifier) linearized through baseband digital predistortion so as to comply with the W-CDMA 3GPP standard with acceptable efficiency. Several predistortion schemes (both memoryless and with memory) were tried, having
