Advances in Ku-Band GaN Single Chip Front End for Space SARs: From System Specifications to Technology Selection

In this paper, a single-chip front-end (SCFE) operating in Ku-band (12–17 GHz) is presented. It is designed exploiting a GaN on SiC technology featured by 150 nm gate length provided by UMS foundry. This MMIC integrates high power and low noise amplification functions enabled by a single-pole double...
