Description
M/A-COM’s MAAMSS0007 RF driver amplifier is a GaAs
MMIC which exhibits high OIP3 as well as high gain and
low power consumption in a low-cost 3mm FQFP-N
surface mount plastic package.
The MAAMSS0007
employs a monolithic single stage design featuring a
convenient 50-ohm input/output impedance that minimizes
the number of external components required. The device
runs off a single +5 volt supply and draws 100 mA
typically. The design provides excellent performance from
1700 to 2500 MHz.
The MAAMSS0007 is fabricated using M/A-COM’s new
iHBT process to realize low current and high power
functionality. The process features full passivation for
increased performance and reliability.
