MAAL-011258

Low Noise Amplifier, 13 to 15 GHz

 The MAAL-011258 is a high performance GaAs low noise amplifier MMIC designed to operate in the Ku band. This device has a low noise figure of 1.7 dB with 27 dB of gain for a power consumption of only 80 mW. On chip matching provides 20 dB of input and output return loss at 14 GHz. It can be used in Radar, and SatCom applications. The die is manufactured using a 0.13 µm gate length pHEMT technology. The MMIC uses gold bond pads and backside metallization and is fully protected with Silicon Nitrite passivation to obtain the highest level of reliability.
