Research abstract
QuinStar Technology proposes to develop a packaged V-band LNA for NASA microwave sensing missions operating at 64-70 GHz. The LNA will achieve an optimized noise figure of 2.5 dB with an enhanced input referred P1dB greater than -10 dBm. We will accomplish these design goals by utilizing state-of-the-art 40nm GaN device technology and linearity optimized LNA design methodology.
