Computer Aided Design of Monolithic Microwave and Millimeter Wave Integrated Circuits and Subsystems

Abstract

This final technical report presents results on the computer aided design of monolithic microwave and millimeter wave integrated circuits and subsystems. New results include analytical and computer aided device models of GaAs MESFETs and HEMTs or MODFETs, new synthesis techniques for monolithic feedback and distributed amplifiers and a new nonlinear CAD program for MIMIC called CADNON. This program incorporates the new MESFET and HEMT model and has been successfully applied to the design of monolithic millimeter-wave mixers. Keywords: GaAs MESFETs, HEMTs, MODFETs, Monolithic microwave and Millimeter integrated circuits, MMIC, MIMIC, Computer aided design, and Large-signal device models.
