Monolithic L-band amplifiers operating at milliwatt and sub-milliwatt DC power consumptions
Monolithic L-band low-noise amplifiers (LNAs) operating at milliwatt and sub-milliwatt DC power consumptions were designed and fabricated. A maximum gain/power quotient of 19.1 dB/mW was recorded at a frequency of 1.25 GHz with a cascade of two monolithic microwave integrated circuit (MMIC) amplifiers yielding a total gain of 15.3 dB on a total power consumption of just 800 mu W. This is believed to be the highest gain/power quotient ever reported for a monolithic circuit at L-band. The ultralow power consumptions were obtained with a standard foundry process using an enhancement-mode MESFET with a variety of design techniques. Yields obtained on two 4-in GaAs wafers were 96-100%.<>
