Abstract
A distributed amplifier with improved stabilization includes an input transmission circuit, an output transmission circuit, at least one cascade amplifier coupled between said input and output transmission circuits. Each cascade amplifier includes a common-gate configured transistor coupled to the output transmission circuit, and a common-source configured transistor coupled between the input transmission circuit and the common-gate configured transistor. The distributed amplifier also includes a non-parasitic resistance and capacitance coupled in series between a drain and a gate of at least one of the common-gate configured transistors for increasing the amplifier stability.
