General Description
Mimix Broadband's three stage balanced 43.5 - 46.5
GHz GaAs MMIC power amplifier has a small signal
gain of 14.0 dB with a +29.0 dBm P1dB output
compression point. The device also includes lange

couplers to achieve good input and output return
loss. This MMIC uses Mimix Broadband’s 0.15 µm GaAs
PHEMT device model technology, and is based upon
