摘要：
We have developed 400 W pulsed output power GaN HEMT amplifiers with 2.9 - 3.5 GHz bandwidth. Operating the amplifier from a 65 V drain supply under pulsed operation with 10% duty cycle and 100 mu s pulse width obtains an output power in the range of 401 - 446 W over the band with a drain efficiency of 48 - 55%. The amplifier uses AlGaN/GaN HEMTs with a total device periphery of 44.4 mm and advanced source connected field plates for high breakdown voltage. These wideband high power amplifiers are suitable for use in pulsed radar applications.
