Description

Agilent’s AMMP-5618 is a high
power, medium gain amplifier
that operates from 6 GHz to
20 GHz. The amplifier is designed
to be an easy-to-use component
for any surface mount PCB
application. In communication
systems, it can be used as a LO
buffer, or as a transmit driver
amplifier. During typical opera-
tion with a single 5V supply, each
gain stage is biased for Class-A
operation for optimal power
output with minimal distortion.
The amplifier has integrated 50Ω
I/O match, DC blocking, self-bias
and choke to eliminate complex
tuning and assembly processes
typically required by hybrid
(discrete-FET) amplifiers. The
package is fully SMT compatible
with backside grounding and I/O
to simplify assembly.
