This workshop will deal with the most recent developments of CMOS or BiCMOS power amplifiers for cellular, LAN, PAN, satellite and radar applications.The frequency range covered is from 1GHz up to 100GHz. The presenters will compare new BiCMOS or CMOS circuits and/or devices with existing ones in technologies brought into play presently (i.e., InP, GaAs).The presenters will be balanced with academic and industrial affiliations.
