Description
The
MAAP-000021-PKG0003
is a 2-stage 2 W power amplifier
with on-chip bias networks in a 20 lead MLP package, allowing
easy assembly. This product is fully matched to 50 ohms on
both the input and output. It can be used as a power amplifier
stage or as a driver stage in high power applications.
Each device is 100% RF tested to ensure performance
compliance. The part is fabricated using M/A-COM’s GaAs
Multifunction Self-Aligned Gate (MSAG™) Process.
