MAAPGM0060-DIE
903186 — Preliminary Information
Description
The MAAPGM0060-DIE is a 2-stage, 5 W power amplifier with on-chip bias networks. This produ ct is fully match ed to 50 ohms on both the input and output. It can be used as a power amplifier stage or as a driver stage in high power applications. Each device is 100% RF tested on wafer to ensure performance compliance. The part is fabricated using M/A-COM’s repeatable, high performance and highly reliable GaAs Multifunction Self-Aligned Gate (MSAG) Process. This process provides polyimide scratch protection.
Primary Applications
♦ Point-to-Point Radio ♦ SatCom ♦ Broadband Wireless Access
