General Description
Mimix Broadband’s two stage 2.0-18.0 GHz GaAs
MMIC low noise amplifier has a small signal gain of
15.0 dB with a noise figure of 3.8 dB across most of
the band. This MMIC uses Mimix Broadband’s 0.15 µm
GaAs PHEMT device model technology, and is based
upon electron beam lithography to ensure high
repeatability and uniformity. The device comes in a
RoHS compliant 4x4mm QFN Surface Mount Package
offering excellent RF and thermal properties. This
device is well suited for fiber optic, microwave radio,
military, space, telecom infrastructure, test
instrumentation and VSAT applications.

App Note [1] Biasing - This device operates using a self-biased architecture and only requires one drain bias. Bias is nominally
Vd=5V, I(total)=100 mA.
App Note [2] Bias Arrangement - Each DC pad (Vd) needs to have DC bypass capacitance (~100-200 pF) as close to the device as possible.
Additional DC bypass capacitance (~0.01 uF) is also recommended.
MTTF Graphs (TBD)
These numbers were calculated based on accelerated life test information and thermal model analysis received from the fabricating foundry.

Handling and Assembly Information
CAUTION! - Mimix Broadband MMIC Products contain gallium arsenide (GaAs) which can be hazardous to the human body and the
environment. For safety, observe the following procedures:
• Do not ingest.
• Do not alter the form of this product into a gas, powder, or liquid through burning, crushing, or chemical processing as these
by-products are dangerous to the human body if inhaled, ingested, or swallowed.
• Observe government laws and company regulations when discarding this product. This product must be discarded in
accordance with methods specified by applicable hazardous waste procedures.
Life Support Policy - Mimix Broadband's products are not authorized for use as critical components in life support devices or
systems without the express written approval of the President and General Counsel of Mimix Broadband. 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 rugged surface mount package compatible
with high volume solder installation. Vacuum tools or other suitable pick and place equipment may be used to pick and place this
part. Care should be taken to ensure that there are no voids or gaps in the solder connection 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.

Parts are to be oriented with the PIN 1 closest to the tape's round sprocket holes on the tape’s trailing edge.
Note: Tape and Reel packaging is ordered with a -000T suffix. Package is available in 2000 unit reels through designated sales channels.
Minimum order quantities should be discussed with your local sales representative.
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.
