DESCRIPTION
The TC3332 is a 2-stage PHEMT Single Bias MMIC power amplifier. It is designed for use in low cost and
high volume 3.3-4.0 GHz band applications. The MMIC is matched to 50Ω operation. It provides a typical gain
of 27 dB and P1dB power of 30 dBm. Typical bias condition is 9V at 500 mA. The MMIC is packaged in a
copper based ceramic 10 pins power package. The copper based carrier of the package allows direct soldering
of the device to the PCB.
