摘要
This article presents a single-chip transceiver frontend GaN MMIC operating at 2-6 GHz with high power handling capacity. The GaN MMIC integrates a power amplifier, a switch and a low-noise amplifier. A simple on-chip tuned inductance solution is proposed considering the resonance caused by the on-chip capacitance and the inductance induced by the bias bond-wire of the power amplifier to enhance wide-band design. To enhance the power capacity and isolation of transceiver, a topology of "one series and two in parallel" is proposed for switch, which shows more than 100W power handling capacity and 40 dB isolation. The transceiver MMIC demonstrated a 39 dBm of output power and a gain greater than 15 dB of the transmitting branch, the power added efficiency is 24-37% in the range of 2-6 GHz, the noise figure of the receiving branch is better than 3dB and the gain is greater than 15 dB over 1.5-5.5 GHz.
