摘要
In this paper, we present a high power-added efficiency (PAE) and high gain per stage 60 GHz power amplifier (PA). The proposed PA consists of a two-stage common-source amplifier that incorporates neutralization capacitors and compensation inductors to enhance both gain and efficiency. The gain characteristics are analyzed, demonstrating that the proposed design improves both gain and efficiency. Implemented in 65 nm CMOS technology, the PA achieves a saturated output power of 13.4 dBm at 60 GHz, with a maximum PAE of 26.7% from a 1 V supply. The output 1 dB compression point is 10.5 dBm, with a PAE of 16%. The PA occupies a core chip area of 0.094 mm2.
