Abstract

In this data set, a power transistor’s uncertainty added S-parameters, its estimated S-parameters, uncertainty added S-parameters of a power amplifier circuit, uncertainty added S-parameters of a cascaded amplifier, and amplifier’s design files are presented. Sumitomo’s GaAs-FET FLL57MK is used for the measurements and design. Cadence AWR is used for the power amplifier design. The power amplifier is designed for 2.4 GHz, using S-parameters. Uncertainty added S-parameters of the transistor, power amplifier, and cascaded power amplifier can be used to analyze measurement uncertainty on the design and implementation of a power amplifier.

Instructions:

Uncertainty added S-parameters can be seen and analyzed with Maury Microwave’s Insight software or VNA Tools. Estimated S-parameters of the transistor and matching networks can be analyzed with S-parameter viewer or EDA tools. The circuit is designed with Cadence AWR. Matching networks are cascaded with uncertainty added S-parameters’ of the transistor using VNA Tool software to find the final uncertainty of the power amplifier and cascaded amplifier. The same amplifier is used to form the cascaded amplifier since it is a 50 ohm matched amplifier.
