GENERAL DESCRIPTION:

The FMA219 is a 2-stage, reactively matched pHEMT low-noise MMIC amplifier designed for use over 7.0 to 11.0 GHz. The amplifier requires a single +3V supply and one off-chip component for supply de-coupling. Both the input and output ports are DC de-coupled. Grounding of the amplifier is provided by plated thru-vias to the bottom of the die, no additional ground is required. The amplifier is unconditionally stable over all load states (-45 to +85°C), and conditionally stable if the input port is open-circuited.

FEATURES:

• 7.0 – 11.0 GHz Operating Bandwidth

• 1.1 dB Noise Figure

• 21 dB Small-Signal Gain

• 12 dBm Output Power

• +3V Single Bias Supply

• DC De-coupled Input and Output Ports

TYPICAL APPLICATIONS:

• Low noise front end amp

• General X-Band gain block
