We have developed a power amplifier IC for Bluetooth Class 1 operating at single low voltage of 1.8 V for both control and drain voltages. We can realize it due to fully enhancement-mode hetero-junction FETs utilizing a re-grown p +-GaAs gate technology. The power amplifier is a highly compact design as a small package of 1.5 mm1.5 mm0.4 mm with fully integrated gain control and shutdown functions. An impressive power added efficiency of 52% at an output power of 20 dBm is achieved with an associated gain of 22 dB. Also, sufficiently low leakage current of 0.25 µA at 27 is exhibited, which is comparable to conventional HBT power amplifiers.
