Compound field effect transistor with multi-feed gate and serpentine interconnect

A Field Effect Transistor device comprising:

• a compound semiconductor layer;
• a first and second source finger disposed on a surface of the compound semiconductor material;
• a first and second drain finger disposed on the surface of the compound semiconductor material, and alternating with the first and second source finger;
• a plurality of gate fingers disposed on the surface of the compound semiconductor material, each gate finger between an adjacent source finger and drain finger and having a first and second end, the first end of each gate finger electrically coupled to a gate signal through a first pad and the second end of each gate finger electrically coupled to the gate signal through a second pad;
• a plurality of first source vias distributed along a width of the first source finger between a source via proximate each end of the first source finger;
• a plurality of second source vias distributed along a width of the second source finger between a source via proximate each end of the second source finger, the first and second source vias configured to partition source current along the width of the first and second source finger, respectively;
• a plurality of source conductors distributed along the width of the first and second source finger, each source conductor in electrical contact with the first source finger through contact with at least one of the first source vias and with the second source finger through contact with at least one of the second source vias;
• a plurality of first drain vias distributed along a width of the first drain finger between a first drain via proximate each end of the first drain finger;
• a plurality of second drain vias distributed along a width of the second drain finger between a first drain via proximate each end of the first drain finger, the first and second drain vias configured to partition drain current along the width of the first and second drain finger, respectively;
• and
• a plurality of drain conductors distributed along the width of the first and second drain finger, each drain conductor in electrical contact with the first drain finger through contact with at least one of the first drain vias and with the second drain finger through contact with at least one of the second drain vias.
