DESCRIPTION

The TC3142 is a one stage PHEMT MMIC power amplifier. It is designed for use in low cost, high volume, 2.4-2.5 GHz ISM band applications. The MMIC provides a typical gain of 13.5 dB and saturation power of more than 34 dBm. Typical bias condition is 5V at 600 mA. The MMIC is packaged in a standard SO-8 power package. The copper based carrier of the package allows direct soldering of the device to the PCB for proper heat sinking. The input and output matching of the MMIC require external components.
