DESCRIPTION:This distinguished lecture talk presents an overview of RF and 
 mm-wave Power Amplifier (PA) designs in silicon\, focusing on the fundamen
 tals\, design practices\, and advanced PA topologies. First\, the distingu
 ished lecture talk will introduce PA performance metrics and their impacts
  on wireless systems.\n\nNext\, it presents PA device-level designs\, incl
 uding active device large-signal operations\, nonlinearity\, and stability
  as well as passive network impedance transformation and power combining. 
 Basic load-/source-pull simulations and biasing techniques will be covered
 .\n\nThen\, the talk will go through popular PA classes of linear and swit
 ching PAs. The talk will cover a wide variety of advanced PA topologies th
 at enhance bandwidth\, efficiency and linearity. Finally\, the distinguish
 ed lecture talk will conclude with several PA design examples at RF and mm
 -Wave frequencies.\n\nThis presentation is open to all and both experience
 d and novice level engineers are welcome to attend.\n\nSpeaker(s): Prof. H
