data. Conditionally stable, source and load VSWR<3:1 required.
Dash-6 models conditionally stable, source and load VSWR<5:1 required.
Low frequency cutoff determined by external coupling capacitors.

ii Specification at 2500 MHz.
A. Environmental specifications and re-flow soldering information available in General
Information Section.
B. Units are non-hermetic unless otherwise noted. For details on case dimensions &
finishes see “Case Styles & Outline Drawings”.
C. Prices and Specifications subject to change without notice.
1. Minimum gain at highest frequency. Full temperature range, except room tempera-
ture for Dash-4 and Dash-5 models.
2. Model number designated by color dot or alphanumeric code marking.
3. Frequency at which output power, NF and IP3 are specified:
500 MHz for MAR-1SM, MAR-6SM, RAM-1, RAM-6, MAV-11SM, VAM-6,
1000 MHz for all other models.
4. Dash-5 and Dash-6 models potentially unstable with very high VSWR terminations.
5. Minimum output at 1 dB compression: +16.0 dBm for MAV-5SM at room temperature.
6. Thermal resistance θjc is from hottest junction in the device to the mounting surface of
the leads.
