Highly reliable GaN high electron mobility transistors (HEMTs) are demonstrated for 3G-wireless base station applications. A state-of-the-art 250-W AlGaN/GaN-HEMTs push-pull transmitter amplifier operated at a drain bias voltage of 50 V is addressed with high efficiency under W-CDMA signals. The amplifier, combined with a digital pre-distortion (DPD) system, also achieved an adjacent channel leakage power ratio (ACLR) of less than -50 dBc for 4-carrier W-CDMA signals. Memory effect and temperature characteristics are also discussed. A stable operation including gate leakage current under RF stress testing for 1000 h is demonstrated at a drain bias voltage of 60 V. AlGaN/GaN HEMTs on an n-type doped 3-inch SiC substrate is introduced towards low cost manufacturing for the first time.
