    摘要: In the power amplifier of the invention, at a start of power amplification by an amplifier transistor 103 serving as an amplification section, a speedup circuit 122 transiently increases a bias which is fed to the amplifier transistor 103 via a bias power source section composed of a bias circuit 111 and a power source circuit 112. As a result, the power amplification factor of the amplifier transistor 103 is transiently increased at the start of power amplification by the amplifier transistor 103. Thus, the time elapsing until temperature variations due to heat generation of the amplifier transistor 103 come to an equilibrium on the whole circuit is shortened, with a result of reduced distortion of the amplification signal such as a modulated-wave signal. Accordingly, in the invention, it becomes possible to suppress distortion increases of an amplification signal due to heat generation at the start time without using any temperature sensing element.

    摘要: An emitter of a heterojunction bipolar transistor has a double-layer protrusion formed of a first emitter layer and a second emitter layer and protruded outside an external base region. The protrusion of 50 nm in total thickness is enough to prevent damage during formation of the protrusion by etching or during later fabricating processes. Penetration of moisture through damaged places is eliminated. A base ohmic electrode is continuously formed on the first and second emitter layers on the external base region up to the protrusion. Thus, the protrusion is reinforced so as to be further hard to damage. By ensuring a large area for the base ohmic electrode, an alignment margin can be taken during formation of a base lead electrode.

    摘要: A variable impedance circuit includes a capacitor and a MOSFET and is connected between the base of a bipolar transistor and a ground node. The capacitor acts to the open for a direct-current component. The MOSFET varies impedance for an alternate-current component. A base voltage ration portion includes first and second resistors, which set a bias applied to the base of the bipolar transistor. More specifically, the base voltage generation portion divides an operating voltage supplied through a voltage terminal by a ratio of the first and second resistors to generate a base voltage of the bipolar transistor.
