The amplifier has a record S21 bandwidth of 84 GHz between 226 and 310 GHz. This conventional common-source design is competitive regarding bandwidth with inherent broadband H-band traveling-wave amplifiers but offers a larger maximum gain of 19.9 dB. An OP(1dB) of more than 8.2 dBm is measured at 243 GHz, while exceeding existing common-source designs by 27 GHz in small-signal bandwidth.enPower amplifiersbroadband communicationHEMTsconference paper
