Abstract
The development of V-band low-noise monolithic microwave integrated circuits (MMICs) based on pseudomorphic modulation-doped FETs (P-MODFETs) is presented. These dual-stage MMICs incorporate P-MODFETs, with 0.35- mu m*60- mu m gates, as the active elements, electron-beam-written tuning elements, and DC-blocking and bias networks. The dual-stage chips exhibited a maximum gain of 10.2 dB at 59.5 GHz and a minimum noise figure of 5.3 dB, with an associated gain of 8.2 dB at 58.2 GHz. A cascaded four-stage amplifier using two MMIC modules exhibited 5.8-dB minimum noise figure with an associated gain of 18.3 dB at 58 GHz and up to 21.1 dB of maximum gain. >
