! Very Stable Over Temperature
Description
M/A-COM’s MAALSS0012 broadband gain stage is a
GaAs MMIC amplifier in a low-cost miniature SOT-363
surface mount plastic package. The MAALSS0012
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 from 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.
M/A-COM fabricates the MAALSS0012 using an E/D
MESFET process to realize low noise and high dynamic
range. The process features full passivation for
performance and reliability.
