Abstract(in English) This paper reports on a Gallium Nitride High Electron Mobility Transistor (GaN HEMT) Monolithic Microwave Integrated Circuit (MMIC) high power amplifier (HPA), which features high power and high gain over C-Ku band 115 % relative bandwidth. A C-Ku band GaN HEMT MMIC amplifier was manufactured and measured. Size of the MMIC HPA was 4mm by 4.8mm. The fabricated MMIC HPA delivered an averaged output power of 20 W with averaged power gain of 9.6dB over C-Ku band. The output power is state-of-the-art high output power for GaN HEMT MMIC amplifiers with more than 100% relative bandwidth and up to Ku band operation frequency.
