We report traveling-wave amplifiers having 1-112 GHz bandwidth with 7 dB gain, and 1-157 GHz bandwidth with 5 dB gain. A third amplifier exhibited 5 dB gain and a 180-GHz high-frequency cutoff. The amplifiers were fabricated in a 0.1-m gate length InGaAs/InAlAs HEMT MIMIC technology. The use of gate-line capacitive-division, cascode gain cells and low-loss elevated coplanar waveguide lines have yielded record bandwidth broad-band amplifiers.
