Description

The AMMC-6345 MMIC is a broadband medium power

amplifier designed for use in driving stage for transmit-

ters that operate in various frequency bands between

20GHz and 45GHz. It can be used as a driver stage for

the AMMC-6425, 6430 and 6440 (18-27GHz, 25-32GHz

and 37-42GHz) 1W MMIC power amplifiers when linear

operation is required. At 40GHz, it provides 24dBm of

output power (P-1dB), 20dB of gain, and a 32 dBm out-

put third order intercept (OIP3). The device has input and

output matching circuitry for use in 50

Ω environments.

The AMMC-6345 integrates a temperature compensated

RF power detection circuit that enables power detection

of 0.8V/W at 40GHz. The device operates on 5V for cur-

rent supply (negative voltage only needed for Vg). It is

fabricated in a PHEMT process for exceptional power and

gain performance. For improved reliability and moisture

protection, the die is passivated at the active areas.

Note:

1. Operation in excess of any one of these conditions may result in permanent damage to this device.
