CHU3377
RoHS COMPLIANT
W-band Multifunction: Multiplier / MPA
GaAs Monolithic Microwave IC
Description
The CHU3377 is a W-band monolithic multifunction, which integrates an input buffer, a frequency multiplier by three followed by an amplifier splitter and two W-band chains in parallel combined at the output. Each W-band chain includes a frequency multiplier and a medium power amplifier. The frequency multipliers are based on active
transistors and allow operation at low input level with reduced power consumption. All the active devices are internally self-biased to ease bias configuration. This chip is compatible with automatic equipment for assembly. The circuit is manufactured with the pHEMT process: 0.15µm gate length, via holes through the substrate, air bridges and electron beam gate lithography. It is available in chip form.
