hi,
i need a help regarding how to design a 1W power amplifier using ADS tools. is there any design example available? and could i design it with small signal S-parameter simulation for its low output power? Or i have to design it with hamonic balance simulation?
pls help ,thanks a lot for the info!
 

Re: power amplifier!

usually in power amplifier design u need to use LSSP , which is based on HB simulation , small signal S parameters are not ususally used in PA

also it will be not vaild at all if u design a class C PA

so use HB , or LSSP

hi,

khouly,thank u very much! is there any design example available for me to do it with LSSP simulation? i think , the examples given in the ADS is not available for me. and now i will design a 1W 1G to 10G PA which is not MMIC, could u give me some advice?

thanks again!

Re: power amplifier!

i will design PA at 6 GHz , 1 W , soon , but i am not seeign which transistor to use

so if u have a transisitor tell me

thanks
