摘要
A 0.1cc high efficiency power amplifier multi chip module (MCM) employing novel enhancement-mode double-doped AlGaAs/InGaAs/AlGaAs heterojunction FETs (HJFET) has been successfully developed for 1.9GHz wide-band CDMA handsets. The HJFET has a 5nm thickness Al0.5Ga0.5As barrier layer for improving a gate forward turn-on voltage. It was also optimized with thickness of upper and lower Al0.2Ga0.8As electron supply layers to obtain a high maximum drain current. Under single 3.5V operation, the MCM exhibited 26.0dBm output power, a record 47.2% power-added efficiency and 22.3dB associated gain with -35.5dBc adjacent channel leakage power ratio at 5MHz off-center frequency.
