Abstract

We present the results for a 50GHz drive amplifier for use with a Mach-Zehnder modulator. The MMIC device is packaged using a flexible substrate technology to obtain compact size and broadband performance. The packaged device exhibits well-matched transmission lines on the input and output, and large gain and bandwidth. The MMIC performance is directly related to performance of the drain bias circuit.
