Abstract
This paper highlights the gain-bandwidth merit of the single stage distributed amplifier (SSDA) and its derivative multiplicative amplifier topologies (i.e. the cascaded SSDA (C-SSDA) and the matrix SSDA (M-SSDA)), for ultra-wideband amplification. Two new monolithic microwave integrated circuit (MMIC) amplifiers are presented: an SSDA MMIC with 7.1dB average gain and 200GHz bandwidth; and the world's first M-SSDA, which has a 12dB average gain and 170GHz bandwidth. Both amplifiers are based on an Indium Phosphide DHBT process with 250nm emitter width. To the authors best knowledge, the SSDA has the widest bandwidth for any single stage amplifier reported to date. Furthermore, the three tier M-SSDA has the highest bandwidth and gain-bandwidth product for any matrix amplifier reported to date.
