A 20-GHz Bandwidth Power Amplifier for Phased Array 5G New Radio Transmitters
A 27-47-GHz differential cascode power amplifier for millimeter-wave 5G new radio applications is presented. The PA is a three-stage design using inductively coupled impedance transformers with 31-dB nominal power gain. A device periphery ratio of 1:2:6 is adopted for predriver, driver, and final stage, respectively. A gain equalization technique was used in the interstage transformers to obtain t
