TGA8344-SCC

Product Data Sheet April 3, 2003 2 - 18 GHz Low Noise Amplifier TGA8344-SCC Key Features and Performance 2 to 18 GHz Frequency Range Typical 4 dB Noise Figure at Midband 16 dBm Typical Output Power at 1 dB Gain Compression 19 dB Typical Gain Typical Input SWR 1.5:1 and Output SWR 1.6:1 3.9878 x 3.810 x 0.1016 mm (0.1570 0.150 x 0.0040 in.) Description The TriQuint TGA8344-SCC features two cascaded monolithic low-noise distributed amplifiers with on-chip bias operating from 2 to 18 GHz. This die offers the advantage of high gain, typically 19 dB, in compact die size with simplified biasing configuration. Noise figure is typically 4 dB. The two cascade amplifiers have eighteen 122 um gatewidth FETs providing 16 dBm of output power at 1 dB gain compression. Input return loss is typically 14 dB from 2 to 18 GHz and output return loss is typically 13 dB. Ground is provided to the circuitry through vias to the backside metallization. The TGA8344-SCC small size and high gain make it suitable for use in a variety of wide-band electronic commercial and warfare systems. www.DataSheet.net/ Bond pad and backside metallization is gold plated for compatibility with eutectic alloy attachment methods as well as the thermocompression wire-bonding processes. The TGA8344-SCC is supplied in chip form and is readily assembled using automated equipment.
