Description

M/A-COM’s AM42-0007 is a three-stage MMIC

linear power amplifier in a lead-free, ceramic bolt

down style hermetic package.

The AM42-0007

employs a fully matched chip with internally

decoupled gate and drain bias networks and an

output power detector. The AM42-0007 is designed

to be operated from a constant voltage drain supply.

The AM42-0007 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.

M/A-COM’s AM42-0007 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.
