CGY2121XUH

Ultra Low Noise Amplifier

The CGY2121XUH/C2 is a high performance GaAs Low Noise Amplifier MMIC designed to operate in the K band. This device has an exceptionally low noise figure of 1.2 dB with a very flat 19 dB of gain (+/-0.4 dB). The on chip matching provides 12 dB of input return loss and 11 dB of output return loss. Thanks to the DC regulation the gain and noise are very stable with regards to temperature change. It can be used in Radar, Telecommunication and Instrumentation applications. The die is manufactured using an advanced 70 nm gate length high Indium content MHEMT Technology. The MMIC uses gold bond pads and backside metallization and is fully protected with Silicon Nitride passivation to obtain the highest level of reliability.
