Power, VSAT MMIC

The AM42-0002 is a three-stage MMIC linear power amplifier in a lead-free, ceramic bolt down style hermetic package. The AM42-0002 employs a fully matched chip with internally decoupled gate and drain bias networks and an output power detector. The AM42-0002 is designed to be operated from a constant voltage drain supply. The AM42-0002 is designed for use as an output stage or a driver, in applications for VSAT systems. This design is fully monolithic and requires a minimum of external components. The AM42-0002 is fabricated using a mature 0.5 micron GaAs MESFET process. The process features full passivation for increased performance and reliability. This product is 100% RF tested to ensure compliance to performance specifications.
