RF Out
M/A-COM’s MAAMSS0046 driver amplifier is a
GaAs MMIC which exhibits high OIP3 as well as
high gain and low power consumption in a lead-free
SOT-89 surface mount plastic package.
Pin Configuration
The MAAMSS0046 employs a monolithic single
stage design featuring a convenient 50 Ω input /
output impedance that minimizes the number of
external components required. The device runs off
a single +5 volt supply and draws 70 mA typically.

3. Exceeding any one or combination of these limits may cause
permanent damage to this device.
1. Reference Application Note M513 for reel size information.
4. M/A-COM does not recommend sustained operation near
these survivability limits.
Maximum Operating Conditions 2
5. The MAAMSS0046 is designed to operate optimally at 10 dB
backed off from its output P1dB. Driving the device at higher
power levels could degrade performance.
