Description

The MAAP-000076-PKG001 is a 2-stage 16W power amplifier with on-chip bias networks in a 10 lead flange-mount ceramic package, allowing easy assembly. The package is hermetic and provides an excellent thermal path. This product is fully matched to 50 ohms on both the input and output. External DC blocking capacitors are not required since they are incorporated into the MMIC design. It can be used as a power amplifier stage or as a driver stage in high power applications.

Fabricated using M/A-COM’s repeatable, high performance and highly reliable GaAs Multifunction Self-Aligned Gate (MSAG™) Process, each device is 100 RF tested on wafer to ensure performance compliance.
