The MMIC design is configured as two stages of differential amplifiers for broadband performance. It is optimized for exceptionally low distortion and noise figure in a 75 Ω push-pull amplifier circuit. It provides excellent input and output return loss over the 45 to 1200 MHz band. DC current can be adjusted with an external resistor to optimize power consumption with RF output level.

These operating conditions will ensure MTTF > 1 x 106 hours. 9. Junction Temperature (TJ) = Case Temperature (TC) + Өjc*(V*I) Typical thermal resistance (ӨJC) = 3.8 °C/W. a) For TC = 25°C, TJ = 66°C @ 24 V, 445 mA b) For TC = 100°C, TJ = 141°C @ 24 V, 445 mA 10. Exceeding any one or combination of these limits may cause permanent damage to this device. 11. MACOM does not recommend sustained operation near these survivability limits. Printed Circuit Board (PCB) Thermal Design To maintain reliable junction temperatures for this high power amplifier the printed circuit board must provide low thermal resistance to the exposed paddle of the IC package. Two PCB thermal solutions are presented below. In general, thinner substrates and thicker plating for vias provide lower thermal resistance. Calculation of case temperature must include temperature rise in PCB.
