Description
M/A-COM’s AM52-0024 is a 0.5 W, 2.4 GHz GaAs
MMIC, power amplifier in a low-cost MSOP-8 package. It
employs some external matching to obtain optimum input
return loss and output power performance. The AM52-
0024 may be operated with supply voltages of +3.3 V to
+5.5 V.
The AM52-0024 may be used in a wide variety of applica-
tions including WLAN, WDECT, and Bluetooth.
The AM52-0024 is fabricated using M/A-COM’s Self-
Aligned MSAG MESFET process to realize high power
efficiency, single supply voltage, and small size. The proc-
ess features full passivation for increased performance and
reliability.
