AMMC-5040

20–45 GHz GaAs Amplifier

Data Sheet

Description

The AMMC-5040 is a high gain broadband amplifier

designed for both military applications and commercial

communication systems. This four-stage amplifier has

input and output matching circuitry for use in 50 ohm

environments. It is fabricated using PHEMT integrated

circuit structures that provide exceptional broadband

performance. The backside of this chip is both RF and DC

ground. This simplifies the assembly process and reduces

assembly related performance variations and costs. For

improved reliability and moisture protection, the die is

passivated at the active areas.This MMIC is a cost effective

alternative to hybrid (discrete-FET) amplifiers that require

complex tuning and assembly process.
