1.6 GHz 30W Power Amplifier Module May 2009 - Rev 12-May-09 P9003-MB Features Peak-Envelope Power, 30W with Pulsed Signal 3W Linear Power 38 dB Gain 9V Positive Voltage Supply Fully Matched Internally Thermally Efficient for Higher MTTF Balanced Output Construction Shielded Metal Lid Low Harmonic Content Small Size, 40x36mm Surface Mount Package Absolute Maximum Ratings General Description The XP9003-MB is a highly linear 3-stage power amplifier module capable of 38 dB of gain, 30W of peak-power and is housed in a surface mount, thermally efficient package. XP9003-MB is fully matched internally and does not require external components. The module operates off a 9V voltage supply rail and is equipped with active bias circuit and control voltage allowing for current setting and minimizing variation over temperature and voltage. This product is designed specifically for satellite communication transmitters with high peak to average signals. XP9003-MB achieves excess of 35 dBm of linear power and less than -45 dBc adjacent channel power ratio when operated under a 16 QAM traffic signal with 6 dB peak to average ratio. Supply Voltage +9.0V RF Input Power +10 dBm Storage Temperature -55°C to 125 °C Junctions Temperature 175°C Operating Temperature -40°C to 85 °C Thermal Resistance 2.25°C/W Moisture Sensitivity Rating MSL 3 ESD (HBM) TBD Operating this device above any of the above parameters may cause permanent damage XP9003-MB: Gain 50 40 30 (dB) 20 10 0 -10 -20 -30 -40 -50 0 0.5 1 1.5 2 Frequency (GHz) 2.5 Mimix Broadband, Inc., 10795 Rockley Rd., Houston, Texas 77099 Tel: 281.988.4600 Fax: 281.988.4615 mimixbroadband.com 3 Page 1 of 5 Characteristic Data and Specifications are subject to change without notice. ©2009 Mimix Broadband, Inc.

As used herein: (1) Life support devices or systems are devices or systems which, (a) are intended for surgical implant into the body, or (b) support or sustain life, and whose failure to perform when properly used in accordance with instructions for use provided in the labeling, can be reasonably expected to result in a significant injury to the user. (2) A critical component is any component of a life support device or system whose failure to perform can be reasonably expected to cause the failure of the life support device or system, or to affect its safety or effectiveness. Package Attachment - This packaged product from Mimix Broadband is provided as a drop-in package and is not compatible with exposure to reflow soldering processes due to the nature of its internal construction. Mimix will only support hand-soldering processes for this device. Care should be taken not to apply heavy pressure to the top or tabs to avoid package damage. Care should be taken to ensure that there are no voids or gaps in the solder connections and base heat sink so that good RF, DC and ground connections are maintained. Voids or gaps can eventually lead not only to RF performance degradation, but reduced reliability and life of the product due to thermal stress. Mimix Lead-Free RoHS Compliant Program - Mimix has an active program in place to meet customer and governmental requirements for eliminating lead (Pb) and other environmentally hazardous materials from our products. All Mimix RoHS compliant components are form, fit and functional replacements for their non-RoHS equivalents. Lead plating of our RoHS compliant parts is 100% matte tin (Sn) over copper alloy and is backwards compatible with current standard SnPb low-temperature reflow processes as well as higher temperature (260°C reflow) “Pb Free” processes.
