Designing with the MAAPSS0107
The MAAPSS0107 is built using a near-enhancement mode FET that operates from a single supply voltage. A negative
voltage is not required because the FET is designed to operate with a +0 VDC gate bias.
There is no impedance matching or RF choking on this IC – these functions are supplied externally. This approach offers the
highest level of performance, the lowest bill of materials cost, and far fewer components than a discrete design.
Output power and efficiency have been optimized for DECT conditions. Input power must be kept between -2 and +2 dBm.
To duplicate MAAPSS0107 data sheet performance, your circuit board must recreate the same impedances developed on
this evaluation board. The table below has one-port s-parameter measurements looking into the traces on the evaluation
board. S-parameters of the MAAPSS0107 are not supplied because the device is designed to operate under large-signal
conditions.
