Tóm tắt

As an example of analog circuit design in GaAs MESFET IC technology. which wants for the breadth of design techniques that silicon ICs enjoy. we describe here a monolithic amplifier offering a gain variable from 30 dB to below 0 dB. at a bandwidth in excess of 1 GHz, and matched to 5OΩ at the input and output pons. This may find application in wideband digital communication receivers. in fiber optics systems, or as a general we variable gain amplifier (VGA).
