The NDPAs were fabricated with 0.14-μm field-plate AlGaN/GaN HEMT technology with fT of 58 GHz and breakdown voltage of 90 - 100 V. The NDPAs were built with six sections in a nonuniform distributed amplifier approach. The small signal gain was ~10 dB over the band with saturated CW output power of 33 - 37 dBm at Vdd = 20 V. The PAE was >35% - 30% up to 6 GHz. The linear NDPAs consist of main and gm3 cells, and show a small signal gain of 6 - 9 dB due to input RF signal routing. The Psat was ~35 dBm at Vdd = 20 V. Based on two-tone testing, the linear NDPA shows improved OIP3 of >50 dBm, compared to OIP3 of 42 dBm of the NDPA without linearization. The resulting OIP3/Pdc is 16:1, which is the highest reported amongst GaN-based distributed amplifiers.","PeriodicalId":103290,"journal":{"name":"2016 IEEE Topical Conference on Power Amplifiers for Wireless and Radio Applications (PAWR)","volume":"30 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-03-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130371219","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The RF-input approach eliminates the digitally-intensive signal component separator found in conventional outphasing architectures. We show that a passive network can be used to generate the phase- and amplitude-modulated signals used to drive nonlinear branch PAs in the outphasing system. The technique is demonstrated at 2.14 GHz in a 40-W PA and characterized with both CW and modulated signals.","PeriodicalId":103290,"journal":{"name":"2016 IEEE Topical Conference on Power Amplifiers for Wireless and Radio Applications (PAWR)","volume":"286 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-03-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122002774","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Assessing this is a key requirement of reliability testing, with VSWR sweeps being a typical way to test this durability. It is important to make sure the amount of information gained from these sweeps is maximized, so adding RF I-V waveform information can help give a more accurate view of what is occurring at the current generator plane. Also if the fundamental and second harmonic loads are systematically swept significant voltage stress, possibly not seen during the current conventional VSWR tests, is observed, which has implications in both the output matching network design and the current method of testing.","PeriodicalId":103290,"journal":{"name":"2016 IEEE Topical Conference on Power Amplifiers for Wireless and Radio Applications (PAWR)","volume":"45 3-4","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-03-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132286905","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
