Description
M/A-COM’s MAAL-008550 low noise amplifier is a
GaAs MMIC amplifier in a lead-free SC70 surface
mount plastic package. The MAAL-008550 employs
a monolithic single stage design and can be biased
from a single 3.0 volt supply. Any voltage between
3.0 and 5.0 volts can be used, depending on system
requirements. Its low noise design provides usable
performance from 0.5 to 3.0 GHz.
M/A-COM fabricates the MAAL-008550 using a
low noise PHEMT process to realize low noise and
high gain. The process features full passivation for
performance and reliability.

Handling Procedures
Please observe the following precautions to avoid
damage:
Static Sensitivity
Gallium Arsenide Integrated Circuits are sensitive
to electrostatic discharge (ESD) and can be
damaged by static electricity. Proper ESD control
techniques should be used when handling these
devices.
†
Reference Application Note M538 for lead-free solder reflow
recommendations.
Meets JEDEC moisture sensitivity level 1 requirements.
