Miniature Broadband Gain Stage,
70 - 3000 MHz
Features
• Low Noise Figure
• High IP₃
• Single +3 V or +5 V Supply Voltage
• Little performance change 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 70 to 3000 MHz.
To show off-chip tuning requirements from 70 to 210
MHz, IF application circuitry is available on page 6.
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.
