A Monolithic W-Band Three-Stage LNA Using 0.1 Micron InAlAs/InGaAs/InP HEMT TechnologyA monolithic W-band three-stage Low Noise Amplifiers (LNA) based on 0.1 um pseudomorphic InAlAs/InGaAs/InP (High Electron Mobility Transistors (HEMTs) has been developed. this LNA demonstrated a noise figure of 4.3 dB and an associated small signal gain of 19 dB at 100 GHz with a low dc power consumption of 20 mW. This is the best reported monolithic W-band LNA performance using InP-based HEMT technology and demonstrates the potential of InP HEMT technology for higher millimeter-wave applications.
