Description
M/A-COM’s MAAMSS0067 is a GaAs PHEMT MMIC
amplifier in a lead-free 4 mm 20-lead PQFN
package. The MMIC design is configured as a pair
of cascode PHEMT amplifiers for broadband
performance. It is designed for integration in a
75-ohm push-pull, low distortion, amplifier circuit.
The device is ideally suited for use in CATV, DBS,
and HDTV applications where low noise figure and
low distortion are required.

Handling Procedures
Please observe the following precautions to avoid
damage:
Static Sensitivity
Gallium Arsenide Integrated Circuits are sensitive
to electrostatic discharge (ESD) and can be
damaged by static electricity. Proper ESD control
techniques should be used when handling these
devices.
