Two millimeter-wave PAs with different power dividers are compared. Experimental results show that the PA2 with the proposed power divider achieves 18 dBm saturated output power (􀀥 􀁂􀀰􀁃) at 84 GHz, which exceeds that of the PA1 with the typical dual-differential power divider by 1.35 dB. The power gain and power-added efficiency (PAE) of PA2 are 24.4 dB and 12.63%, respectively. The PA2 occupies a die area of 0 .48 􀀼􀀼2 . key words: power amplifiers, power divider, millimetre wave, CPW Classification: Microwave and millimeter-wave devices, circuits, and modules  \n1. Introduction  \nThe low breakdown voltage of CMOS-based devices is oneof the main obstacles for achieving a PA with high output power, especially in the millimeter-wave band where the capacitance of large devices becomes prohibitive [1] . Thus, even though multi-way power combining will lead to severe parasitics, metal loss, and mismatch problems, it is widely used to enhance the PA output power. Distributed active transformers (DAT) exhibit an excellent performance among various power combiners [2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12] . However, this DAT-based PA needs a dual-differential power divider with at least a bend. Previous studies [3, 7, 13] introduced the satisfying power divider shown in Fig. 1 (a), and some improvements [14] have been proposed on the differential lines to minimize the imbalance and reduce the undesirable mutual coupling between the combiner and divider. However, the structure is asymmetric, and the model of the curved differential lines is still unclear and cannot be designed simply by equal lengths, which degrades the balance of the output differential signal and deteriorates both the output power and power gain of the PA. Although using two Wilkinson power dividers can achieve a balanced dual-differential power divider, the use of multiple quarter  \n1Dept. of Shanghai Advanced Research Institute, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Shanghai, China  \n2University of Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing, China  \na) [zhangzf@sari.ac.cn](zhangzf@sari.ac.cn)  \nDOI: 10. 1587/elex.19.20220236  \nReceived May 17, 2022  \nAccepted May 23, 2022  \nPublicized May 31, 2022  \nwavelengths increases the size of the circuit.  \nFig. 1.

This proposed divider is shown in Fig. 1 (b) . The insertion loss simulation results of the two power dividers (Fig. 1 (a) and Fig. 1 (b)) are analyzed to obtain the optimal structure. Furthermore, two PAs with two different power dividers are implemented and measured in terms ofS parameters, output power, power gain, and power-added efficiency (PAE) . Experimental results show that at 84 GHz, the saturated output power (􀀥 􀁂􀀰􀁃) of the PA2 (using the proposed ultra-symmetric power divider) is 18 dBm, which is 1.35 dB higher than that of the PA1 (using the previously reported power divider) .  \n2.
