17.0-21.0 GHz GaAs MMIC Power Amplifier May 2006 - Rev 10-May-06 Velocium Products 18 - 20 GHz HPA - APH478 P1009 Chip Device Layout Features Excellent Linear Output Amplifier Stage 20.0 dB Small Signal Gain +29.5 dBm P1dB Compression Point +38.0 dBm Third Order Intercept (OIP3) 100% On-Wafer RF, DC and Output Power Testing 100% Visual Inspection to MIL-STD-883 Method 2010 Mimix Broadband’s two stage 17.0-21.0 GHz GaAs MMIC power amplifier is optimized for linear operation with a third order intercept point of +38.0 dBm. This MMIC uses Mimix Broadband’s 0.15 µm GaAs PHEMT device model technology, and is based upon electron beam lithography to ensure high repeatability and uniformity. The chip has surface passivation to protect and provide a rugged part with backside via holes and gold metallization to allow either a conductive epoxy or eutectic solder die attach process. This device is well www.DataSheet4U.com suited for Millimeter-wave Point-to-Point Radio, LMDS, SATCOM and VSAT applications.
