摘要： A power combiner has been described incorporating N transmission lines each having a quarter wavelength or multiple thereof for a frequency within a predetermined frequency range where the input of each transmission line has a resistor coupled thereto with the other ends of the resistors coupled together using inductance and capacitance to compensate for the distances between the resistors to provide a floating node which is low impedance in the predetermined frequency range. A composite amplifier is described on gallium arsenide wherein a power divider and power combiner are coupled to a plurality of MESFET's and wherein each input and output of the power combiner and power divider have a resistive load with respect to the MESFET while including a matching circuit and wherein each input of the combiner has a resistor coupled to a first floating node and each output of the divider has a resistor coupled to a second floating node. The invention overcomes the problem of a composite amplifier where many elemental amplifiers must be driven and their output signals combined at frequencies where the physical layout would provide phase differences such as in a layout of parallel cells on a flat surface of a substrate.

摘要： In a particular embodiment, the invention is directed to a composite MMIC amplifier comprising a plurality of active devices (e.g., FET, HBT, HEMT) arranged on a semiconductor substrate and having inputs and outputs. A pair of input and output transmission lines are coupled in antiphase arrangement to corresponding inputs and outputs of alternate active devices. Each pair of input transmission lines has branched portions extending from a common polarized input terminal. Each branched portion of like polarity extends to a corresponding alternate input and output of an active device and crosses a branched portion of opposite polarity without interference. Impedance matching means is coupled across antiphase pairs of inputs and outputs of adjacent active devices and forms a virtual ground therebetween thereby simplifying the impedance matching circuit.

摘要： A system includes a transmitter to drive a transmission signal via a first and second transmission line. One half of the transmission signal is applied to the first transmission line and the other half of the transmission signal is applied to the second transmission line. An antenna radiates the transmission signal from the transmitter and receives a reception signal. The reception signal is driven in the opposite direction of the transmission signal on the first and second transmission lines. A plurality of differential amplifiers receive the reception signal from different sections of the first and second transmission lines and generate amplified output signals to a receiver output path having a first and second receiver transmission line. The differential amplifiers reject the one half of the transmission signal applied to the first transmission line and the other half of the transmission signal applied to the second transmission line.
