Description

The MAAP-010516 is a packaged linear power

amplifier that operates from 12.7 - 13.3 GHz. The

device provides 23 dB gain and 42 dBm Output

Third Order Intercept Point (OIP3) with 34 dBm

output P1dB.

The packaged amplifier comes in an industry

standard, fully molded 5 mm QFN package and is

comprised of a three stage power amplifier with an

integrated, temperature compensated on-chip power

detector.

The

device

includes

on-chip

ESD

protection structures and DC by-pass capacitors to

ease the implementation and volume assembly of

the packaged part.

The device is specifically designed for use in

13 GHz point-to-point radios for cellular backhaul

applications.
