Claim:
1. A solid-state amplifier comprising: a first input configured to receive a first radio frequency (RF) signal from a first source external to the amplifier; a second input configured to receive a second RF signal from a second source external to the amplifier; a first chipset configured to amplify a first sub-band of the second RF signal; a second chipset configured to amplify a second sub-band of the second RF signal; and a carrier coupled with at least one of the first chipset and the second chipset, wherein the carrier comprises a thermally conductive material and further comprising a diamond layer between the carrier and at least one semiconductor die of at least one of the first chipset and the second chipset, wherein: the carrier is coupled to the diamond layer via a first eutectic bonding layer; and the at least one semiconductor die is coupled to the diamond layer via a second eutectic bonding layer.
