摘要
A MMIC process in AlGaN/CaN technology for advanced transceiver design has been developed. The process is based on microstrip technology with a complete model library of passive elements and AlGaN/GaN HEMTs. The transistor technology in this process is suitable for both power and low noise design, demonstrated with a power density of 5 W/mm, and an NFmin Of 1.4 dB at X-band. Process stability of subcircuits, complementary to power amplifiers and LNAs, in a transceiver system have been investigated. The results indicate that an all AlGaN/GaN MMIC transceiver is realizable using this technology.
