General Description
Mimix Broadband's three stage 27.0-32.0 GHz GaAs
MMIC power amplifier has a small signal gain of 22.0
dB with +33 dBm saturated output power.This MMIC
uses Mimix Broadband’s 0.15 µm GaAs PHEMT device
model technology, and is based upon electron beam
lithography to ensure high repeatability and
uniformity.The chip has surface passivation to protect
and provide a rugged part with backside via holes
and gold metallization to allow either a conductive
epoxy or eutectic solder die attach process.This
device is well suited for Millimeter-wave
