AMMP-6442
37- 40 GHz, 1W Linear Power Amplifier
in SMT Package
Data Sheet
Description
Features
The AMMP-6442 MMIC is a 1W linear power amplifier in
a surface mount package designed for use in transmitters that operate at frequencies between 37GHz and
40GHz. In the operational band, it provides 30dBm of
output power (P-1dB) and 23dB of small-signal gain. This
PA is also designed for high linear applications with typical
performance of 36dBm OIP3 at 18dBm SCL output.
• 5x5mm SMT package
• 1 watt output power
• 50 Ω match on input and output
• ESD protection (50V MM, and 250V HBM)
Typical Performance (Vdd = 5V, Id(q) = 0.7A)
• Frequency range 37 to 40 GHz
Applications
• Small signal Gain of 23dB (Typ.)
• Point-to-Point Radio Systems
• Output power @P-1 of 30dBm (Typ.)
• mmW Communications

Electrical Specifications
1. Small/Large -signal data measured in a fully de-embedded test fixture form TA = 25°C.
2. Pre-assembly into package performance verified 100% on-wafer per AMMC-6442 published specifications.
3. This final package part performance is verified by a functional test correlated to actual performance at one or more
frequencies.
4. Specifications are derived from measurements in a 50 Ω test environment. Aspects of the amplifier performance may
be improved over a more narrow bandwidth by application of additional conjugate, linearity, or low noise (Гopt)
matching.
5. The Gain and P1dB tested at 37GHz and 40GHz guaranteed with measurement accuracy +/-1.5dB for gain and +/1.6dB for P1dB.

Notes:
1. Operation in excess of any one of these conditions may result in permanent damage to this device.
2. Combinations of supply voltage, drain current, input power, and output power shall not exceed PD.
3. These ratings apply to each individual FET
4. The operating channel temperature will directly affect the device MTTF. For maximum life, it is recommended that junction temperatures be
maintained at the lowest possible levels.

Biasing and Operation
Recommended quiescent DC bias condition for optimum
power and linearity performances is Vdd=5 volts with Vgg
(-1V) set for Idq=700 mA. Minor improvements in performance are possible depending on the application. The
drain bias voltage range is 3 to 5V. A single DC gate supply
connected to Vgg will bias all gain stages. Muting can be
accomplished by setting Vgg to the pinch-off voltage Vp
(-2V).
A typical DC bias configuration is shown in Figure 13. Vd3
may be biased from either side (Pin 3 or Pin 5). The RF
input and output ports are DC decoupled internally. No
ground wires are needed since ground connections are
made with plated through-holes to the backside of the
device.

Note: No RF performance degradation is seen due to ESD up to 250V HBM and 50V MM. The DC characteristics in general show increased leakage at
lower ESD discharge voltages. The user is reminded that this device is ESD sensitive and needs to be handled with all necessary ESD protocols.
