MGA-64135

2 – 6 GHz Cascadable GaAs MMIC␣ Amplifier Technical Data MGA-64135 Features Cascadable 50 Ω Gain Block Broadband Performance: 2–6␣ GHz 12.0 dB Typical Gain ± 0.8 dB Gain Flatness 12.0 dBm P1 dB Single Supply Bias Cost Effective Ceramic Microstrip Package applications include narrow and broadband IF and RF amplifiers for commercial, industrial, and military requirements. This MMIC is a cascade of two stages, each utilizing shunt feedback to establish a broadband impedance match. The source of each stage is AC grounded to allow biasing from a single positive power supply. The interstage blocking capacitor as well as a resistive “self-bias” network are included on chip. The die is fabricated using HP’s nominal .5 micron recessed Schottky-barrier-gate, gold metallization and silicon nitride passivation to achieve excellent performance, uniformity, and reliability. 35 Micro-X Package Description The MGA-64135 is a high performance gallium arsenide Monolithic Microwave Integrated Circuit (MMIC) housed in a cost effective, microstrip package. This device is designed for use as a general purpose 50 ohm gain block in the 2 to 6␣ GHz frequency range.
