Abstract(in English) This paper describes an L-band depletion-mode GaAs-based heterostructure FET (HFET) with a field-modulating plate (FP) for cellular base station applications. A one-cell FP-HFET demonstrated an output power density of 1.7 W/mm at a drain bias of 40 V, indicating strong potential for high voltage operation. An FP-HFET power amplifier, consisting of four 86.4mm gate-width chips, delivered a 53.6dBm (230W) output power at 2.1GHz with 11dB linear gain and 42% PAE operated at a drain bias of 22V. A low adjacent channel leakage power ratio (ACPR) of -35dBc with 25% PAE was obtained at an output power of 46dBm, indicating superior linearity characteristics under elevated drain bias conditions. The device also exhibited a record saturated power density of 0.67W/mm.
