Abstract(in English) An L/S-band highly efficient 150 W GaAs FET amplifier has been developed. The amplifier employed newly developed GaAs pseudomorphic heterojunction FETs (HJFETs) exhibiting high gm and small third order transconductance coefficient characteristics. In addition, we employed the second harmonic tuning for the input and output matching circuit to obtain the high efficiency characteristics. The developed push-pull amplifier demonstrated 51.8 dBm (150W) output-power with 60% power added-efficiency and 14.5 dB linear gain at 2.12 GHz under 12 V operation. It also showed low adjacent channel leakage power ratio (ACPR) of less than -35 dBc with a power-added efficiency of 28 % at an output-power of 43 dBm. It is notable that their performances were obtained under Class-B operation with the quiescent drain current of 1.5 A.
