Abstract
A monolithic microwave integrate circuit (MMIC) presents as a power amplifier including a 9:1 overlay transformer and artificial low impedance transmission lines. The 9:1 overlay transformer effects the output impedance thereof. The artificial low impedance transmission lines behave as inductors without occupying an amount of space equivalent to that of an inductor having similar properties as the artificial low impedance transmission line.
