This chapter presents the experimental test setups for the fully-integrated linearized CMOS RF 0.13µm bidirectional distributed amplifier. The chip measurements that are carried out include small-signal s-parameters such as gain and return loss, harmonics power measurements such as 1-dB compression, IMD (intermodulation distortion) and noise figure measurements. All RF measurements are performed with on-wafer probing.
