Abstract

A balanced amplifier employing two identical single‐ended dual‐fed distributed amplifiers is demonstrated to be a viable approach for combining FET output power. The FETs are spaced 180° to ensure all FETs have identical load lines, which are chosen optimally. The configuration uses all FET output power and has good port match. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
