Abstract
We describe a high-volume InP-based HEMT and HBT production line that produces both monolithic microwave and millimeter-wave circuits for wireless applications. Products as diverse as 900 MHz InP HBT cellular power amplifiers and 155 GHz InP HEMT low noise amplifiers are manufactured on the same fab line, modeled after our successful GaAs HEMT and HBT fab line. These products have found acceptance in both high volume commercial wireless applications as well as more specialized millimeter wave applications.
