Description
Features
• Frequency range: 21.2–26.5 GHz
• High gain: 23 dB
Avago’s AMMC-5023 is a high gain, low noise amplifier
that operates from 21 GHz to over 30 GHz. By eliminating
the complex tuning and assembly processes typically
required by hybrid (discrete-FET) amplifiers, the AMMC-
5023 is a cost-effective alternative in both 21.2–23.6 GHz
and 24.5–26.5 GHz communications receivers. The device
has good input and output match to 50 Ohm and is un-
conditionally stable to more than 40 GHz. The backside
of the chip is both RF and DC ground. This helps simplify
the assembly process and reduces assembly related per-
formance variations and costs. It is fabricated in a PHEMT
process to provide exceptional noise and gain perfor-
mance. For improved reliability and moisture protection,
the die is passivated at the active areas.
