| Abstract(in English) | In this paper, a Ku-band Low-Noise MMIC amplifier is presented, which is equipped with a bias circuit that compensates not only temperature dependence of FETs' gain but also gain variation between chips due to process variations. The Ku-band low noise MMIC amplifier with proposed gate-bias circuit was designed and manufactured. It was proved that the proposed bias circuit reduced the temperature dependence of the two-stage MMIC amplifier's gain from 1.4dB/100K to 1.0dB/100K. The chip area consumed for the bias circuit is less than 10% of the total chip size of 1.17mm^2. The gain variation between chips was reduced to 0.25dB in RMS. This amplifier is suitable for active phased array applications. |
