A Comparison Between Actively and Passively Matched S-Band GaAs Monolithic FET Amplifiers

The ability to design monolithic GaAs circuits which are insensitive to active and passive component variations is demonstrated. Actively and passively matched monolithic S-band amplifiers are compared in terms of reproducibility, GaAs usage, power consumption and processing complexity.
