Direct-coupled DC-40 GHz amplifier for high-speed data communication system

The millimeter wave transport over fiber needs more and more bandwidth according to SONET norm which must be able to propagate baseband modulated digital signal. This paper presents a modulator driver which is a direct-coupled amplifier to overcome the frequency limitations due to the link capacitor...

Description
Summary:The millimeter wave transport over fiber needs more and more bandwidth according to SONET norm which must be able to propagate baseband modulated digital signal. This paper presents a modulator driver which is a direct-coupled amplifier to overcome the frequency limitations due to the link capacitors. A two stages DC-40 GHz GaAs P-HEMT amplifier including a level shift cell has been designed using the real frequency synthesis method.
