| Abstract | A 7.7–12 GHz fully monolithic transformer-coupled cascode power amplifier (PA) was designed for X-band phase array radar application. This PA was fabricated in a 0.25- $$μ $$ m SiGe BiCMOS technology with chip size of $$2\times 2$$ mm $$^{2}$$ . The best choice of the cascode topology for PA design is discussed and the possible stability issue of this configuration is analyzed. The distributed capacitor structure which is connected to the base of cascode transistor is proposed to reduce the base series inductance and hence, improve circuit stability and boost gain. Moreover, circuit/layout co-design for above structure is completed through full 3D simulation. The PA features a three-stage cascode architecture that includes both medium-speed (medium breakdown voltage) and high breakdown voltage (low-speed) SiGe transistors, and a 1:2 input splitter and a 4:1 output combiner which are designed for a low insertion loss and compact dimensions on-chip. The proposed PA achieves a measured small signal gain of 26.6–29.6 dB from 7.7 to 12 GHz with a 5.0 V DC supply. A 28 dBm maximum output power with an 18.5 % power-added efficiency at 10 GHz have also been achieved. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
