ABSTRACT:
A GaAs MMIC dual-band amplifier for wireless communications is disclosed for operation at either the 800 MHz or the 1900 MHz band and it provides desired gain and input and output impedance. Switching impedance networks are used at the input and output of the amplifier to provide matching input impedance and desired output impedance for operation in the two bands. Switching impedance networks are also used between any successive stages of the amplifier to provide proper interstage impedance. The dual band amplifier includes a bias control circuit which biases the amplifier to operate in A, B, AB or C mode. The amplifier can be used for the AMPS 800 or the GSM 900 operation or any other cellular operation such as the PCS 1900 and the it can be switched between the two operations by simply applying a proper control signal to the amplifier.
