New HBT MMIC Amplifiers Feature Broadband Frequency Performance With A Single Application Circuit

LOWELL, Mass., Jan. 9, 2007 - M/A-COM, a business unit of Tyco Electronics and a leading provider of wireless radio frequency (RF), microwave and millimeter wave components, today introduced two new HBT MMIC amplifiers. The MAAM-007865-0P1R00 and the MAAM-007866-0P1R00 exhibit exceptional broadband frequency performance using only a single application circuit to cover frequency bands from 50 MHz to 2000 MHz, and 50 MHz to 3300 MHz, respectively.

The MAAM-007865-0P1R00 is designed to have 20 dB gain with +/- 1.2 dB flatness across the frequency band. The P1dB level is 18 dBm and output IP3 is 29 dBm. The MAAM-007866 is a 2 stage device designed to have 27 dB gain with +/- 1.2 dB flatness across the frequency band. The P1dB level is 22.5 dBm and ouput IP3 is 34 dBm.

The design of M/A-COM's MAAM-007865-0P1R00 and MAAM-007866-0P1R00 incorporates an on-chip active bias network, reducing the number of off-board components thus easing application implementation. Both amplifiers require a single bias supply of +5 volts, with a +5 volt reference pin for power-down and power control capability. Each model is available in a 3mm 12 lead PQFN package and assemblies are RoHS compliant.
