AM42-0040

GaAs MMIC VSAT Power Amplifier, 2W, 5.9-6.4 GHz AM42-0040 AM42-0040 GaAs MMIC VSAT Power Amplifier, 2W 5.9 - 6.4 GHz Features High Linear Gain: 30 dB Typ. High Saturated Output Power: +33 dBm Typ. High Power Added Efficiency: 26% Typ. 50Ω Input/Output Broadband Matched High Performance Ceramic Bolt Down Package CR-15 Description M/A-COM’s AM42-0040 is a three-stage MMIC power amplifier in a ceramic bolt down style hermetic package. The AM42-0040 employs an internally matched monolithic chip with internally decoupled Gate and Drain bias networks. The AM42-0040 is designed to be operated from a constant current Drain supply. By varying the Gate bias voltage, the saturated output power performance of this device can be tailored for various applications. The AM42-0040 is designed for use as an output stage or driver amplifier for C-band VSAT transmitter systems. This amplifier employs a fully monolithic chip and requires a minimum of external components. M/A-COM’s AM42-0040 is fabricated using a mature 0.5 micron GaAs MESFET process. The process features full chip passivation for increased performance and reliability. These amplifiers are 100% RF tested to ensure compliance to performance specifications.
