Abstract
Linearization of the gateβsource capacitance in a GaAs FET, realized by using a varactor diode, tends to offer limited improvement. This paper presents a method to allow more flexibility due to the addition of a resistor in series with the linearizing varactor diode. Β© 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

## Abstract A novel programmable MMIC predistortion circuit as an input stage of a broadband power amplifier (PA) is proposed and designed. By varying its reference voltage, one can adjust the magnitude of gain expansion and negative phase deviation to compensate the typical nonlinearities of the f
