TGA8014-SCC

Product Data Sheet 6 - 18 GHz Power Amplifier TGA8014-SCC Key Features and Performance 6 to 18 GHz Frequency Range 11 dB Typical Gain Greater Than 0.5 Watt Output Power at 1 dB Gain Compression Designed for Balanced Configuration Unconditionally Stable 3.6068 x 1.9304 x 0.1016 mm (0.142 x 0.076 x 0.004 in.) Description The TriQuint TGA8014-SCC is a two-stage GaAs monolithic medium power amplifier. Reactively matched 914 um and 1219 um FETS provide 11 dB nominal gain with 16 percent typical power-added efficiency and output power at 1 dB gain compression of 0.5 watt. Ground is provided to the circuitry through vias to the backside metallization. The small size and inherent reliability advantages of a monolithic device over a hybrid design make this device attractive for use in a variety of military applications. Used in a balanced configuration, the TGA8014-SCC effectively addresses applications such as driver and power stages in EW amplifiers, local oscillator buffers, and TWT replacement amplifiers. Bond pad and backside metallization is gold plated for compatibility with eutectic alloy attachment methods as well as the thermcompression and thermosonic wirebonding processes. The TGA8014-SCC is supplied in chip form and is readily assembled using automated equipment.
