Description
M/A-COM's AM50-0002 is a high performance GaAs
MMIC low noise amplifier in a low cost SOIC 8-lead sur-
face mount plastic package. The AM50-0002 employs a
monolithic 3-stage self-bias design and a simple external
matching network to obtain minimum noise figure. It can
be biased using 3- or 5-volt supplies.

V 2.00
The AM50-0002 is ideally suited for use where low noise
figure, high gain, high dynamic range and low power
consumption are required. Typical applications include
receiver front ends in the Global Positioning System
(GPS) market, as well as standard gain blocks, buffer
amps, driver amps and IF amps in both fixed and
portable systems.
