AMMC-6232
ꢀ8 to 32 GHz GaAs High Linearity Low Noise Amplifier
Data Sheet
Description
Features
Avago Technologies AMMC-6232 is an easy-to-use • 800μm x 2000μm Die Size
broadband, high gain, high linearity Low Noise Amplifier
• Single Positive Bias Supply
• Unconditionally Stable
that operates from 18 GHz to 32GHz. The wide band and
unconditionally stable performance makes this MMIC
ideal as a primary or sub-sequential low noise block or
a transmitter or LO driver. The MMIC has 4 gain stages
and requires a 4V, 135mA power supply for optimal
performance. The two gate bias voltages can be combined
for ease of use or separated for more control flexibility. DC-
block capacitors are integrated at the input and output
stages. Since this MMIC covers several bands, it can reduce
part inventory and increase volume purchase options The
MMIC is fabricated using PHEMT technology to provide
exceptional low noise, gain and power performance. The
backside of the chip is both RF and DC ground which
helps simplify the assembly process and reduce assembly
related performance variations and cost.
