Miniature Broadband Gain Stage
200 - 3000 MHz
AM50-0015
Features
• Low Noise Figure
• High IP3
• Single +3 V or +5 V Supply Voltage
• Very Stable Over Temperature
Description
M/A-COM’s AM50-0015 broadband gain stage is a GaAs
MMIC amplifier in a low-cost miniature SOT-363 surface
mount plastic package. The AM50-0015 employs a monolithic
1-stage self-biased design featuring a convenient 50 ohm input/
output impedance that minimizes the number of external
components required. The device typically runs off a single 3.0
volt supply and may also operate at any voltage up to 5.0 volts
for improved power performance. Its broadband design
provides usable performance from 200 to 3000 MHz.
The AM50-0015 is fabricated using M/A-COM’s E/D MESFET
process to realize low noise and high dynamic range. The
process features full passivation for increased performance and
reliability.
