Description
The MAAM28000-A1 is a wide band, MMIC amplifier
housed in
a
small, lead-free, 8-lead
ceramic package. It includes two distributed gain
stages to obtain flat gain and a good, 50-ohm input
and output impedance match over a very wide
bandwidth. The MAAM28000-A1 operates from a
single +10 V supply. It is fully monolithic, requires
no external components and is provided in a low-
cost, user-friendly, microwave package.

The MAAM28000-A1 performs well as a generic IF,
driver or buffer amplifier where high gain, excellent
linearity and low power consumption are important.
Because of its wide bandwidth, the MAAM28000-A1
can be used in numerous commercial and
government system applications, such as satellite
communications, RLL, EW and radar.
