Abstract

A full W-band, MMIC amplifier has been tested on-wafer. The chip delivers 25-43 mW with 6.2±1.2 dB associated large-signal gain across 75-110 GHz when input power is held constant at 8 mW. This is the widest bandwidth MMIC amplifier ever published that delivers at least 25 mW over the entire W-band.
