Description
The MAAM-009560 RF driver amplifier is a GaAs
MMIC which exhibits exceptional linearity
performance over a >20 dB dynamic range, as well
as featuring high gain in a lead-free miniature
SOT-89 surface mount plastic package. The device
is biased with a single +5 volt supply and consumes
225 mA typically.
The MAAM-009560 is fabricated using an HBT
process to realize low current and high linearity. The
process features full passivation for increased
performance and reliability.

Cross Section View
The PCB dielectric between RF traces and RF ground layers
should be chosen to reduce RF discontinuities between 50
Ω
lines and package pins. M/A-COM recommends an FR-4
dielectric thickness of 0.008” (0.20 mm) yielding a 50
Ω
line
width of 0.015” (0.38 mm).
The recommended RF
metalization is 1 ounce copper.
