Summary :

A 100 W, low distortion AlGaAs/GaAs heterostructure FET has been developed for CDMA cellular base stations. This FET employs the longest gate finger ever reported of 800 µm to shrink the chip size. The size of the chip and the package are miniaturized to 1.242.6 mm2 and 17.4 24.0 mm2, respectively. The developed FET exhibits 100 W (50 dBm) saturation output power, and 11.5 dB power gain at 1 dB gain compression at 2.1 GHz. The third-order intermodulation distortion and the power-added efficiency under the two-tone test condition (Δf=1 MHz) are -35 dBc and 24%, respectively at 42 dBm output power, that is 8 dB back off from the saturation power.
