Original Abstract Submitted

In some aspects of the present disclosure, a millimeter-wave amplifier circuit is disclosed. The millimeter-wave amplifier circuit includes a first amplifier, a first inductor coupled to an output of the first amplifier, a second amplifier coupled to the output of the first amplifier and a second inductor coupled to an output of the second amplifier. The second inductor electro-magnetically couples to the first inductor to send a first signal substantially in-phase with a second signal generated at the output of the first amplifier.
