X-band Phase Shifting Power Amplifier MMIC for Phased Array Transmit Modules

conference paper
An X-band Phase Shifting Power Amplifier with sixbit phase control and 5 Watt output power has been developed and tested. The aim of the development is cost reduction for Transmit and Receive components for phased array systems. The device has been developed in the 6-inch 0.5 μm power pHEMT process (PP50-11) of WIN Semiconductors. The use of this process results in cost effective devices with a high power capability.
