Abstract

Disclosed is a novel topology of monolithic, microwave amplifiers with high integration. This is a more compact topology, divided into a two-level or tree-like structure in which the division of the input signal is done firstly on each transistor Tij and, secondly, on each of the elementary transistors tijk of the transistors Tij. More specifically, the input line LE is divided into different basic lines li, each line li supplying lines lij distributed on either side of said lines li, a line lij then supplying a power transistor Tij. Application to microwave amplifiers.
