General Description
Mimix Broadband's three stage balanced 43.5 - 46.5
GHz GaAs MMIC power amplifier has a small signal
gain of 13.0 dB with a +31.0 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
electron beam lithography to ensure high
repeatability and uniformity.The chip has surface
passivation to protect and provide a rugged part with
backside via holes and gold metallization to allow
either a conductive epoxy or eutectic solder die attach
process. This device is well suited for Millimeter-wave
Point-to-Point Radio, LMDS, SATCOM and VSAT
applications.
