Abstract
A description is provided of a high-frequency, multi-stage, millimeter wave amplifier integrated circuit, and of a method for designing and constructing the circuit. The methods and structures have been created to enable the construction of an amplifier offering substantial gain at a relatively high power and high frequency, but occupying minimal area of an integrated circuit die. Various structures and methodologies are described which each contribute to the practical feasibility of constructing an amplifier with such performance in a relatively compact space.
