  Josephson parametric amplifiers have emerged as a promising platform for
quantum information processing and squeezed quantum states generation.
Travelling wave and impedance-matched parametric amplifiers provide broad
bandwidth for high-fidelity single-shot readout of multiple qubit
superconducting circuits. Here, we present a quantum-limited 3-wave-mixing
parametric amplifier based on superconducting nonlinear asymmetric inductive
elements (SNAILs), whose useful bandwidth is enhanced with an on-chip
two-section impedance-matching circuit based on microstrip transmission lines.
The amplifier dynamic range is increased using an array of sixty-seven SNAILs
with 268 Josephson junctions, forming a nonlinear quarter-wave resonator.
Operating in a current-pumped mode, we experimentally demonstrate an average
gain of $17 dB$ across $300 MHz$ bandwidth, along with an average saturation
power of $- 100 dBm$, which can go as high as $- 97 dBm$ with quantum-limited
noise performance. Moreover, the amplifier can be fabricated using a simple
technology with just a one e-beam lithography step. Its central frequency is
tuned over a several hundred megahertz, which in turn broadens the effective
operational bandwidth to around $1.5 GHz$.
