Block Diagram
Description
M/A-Com's MAAP-008171 is an unmatched high
power GaAs pHEMT which exhibits high gain and
linearity performance in a lead-free 4mm PQFN 16-
Lead surface mount plastic package. This part is
tunable over a frequency range from 600 MHz to
4000 MHz making it ideal many linear applications
such as CDMA, WCDMA, and WiMax.
This part can achieve 27 dBm /30 dBm Linear Pout
when measured for 802.16d (EVM < 2.5%) when
operated @ 12V. It also contains a thermally-
coupled reference transistor to allow simple current
mirror biasing.
The MAAP-008171 is fabricated using a high
reliability GaAs PHEMT process to realize low
current and high power functionality. The process
features full passivation for increased performance
and reliability.
