M/A-COM’s MSAG™ process features robust silicon-like
manufacturing processes, planar processing of ion implanted
transistors and multiple implant capability enabling power, lownoise, switch and digital FETs on a single chip. The use of refractory metals and the absence of platinum in the gate metal
formulation prevents hydrogen poisoning when employed in
hermetic packaging.

Operating Instructions
This device is static sensitive. Please handle with
care. To operate the device, follow these steps.
1. Apply VGG = -2 V, VDD= 0 V.
2. Ramp VDD to desired voltage, typically 8.0 V.
3. Adjust VGG to set IDQ, (approximately @ –2 V).
4. Set RF input.
5. Power down sequence in reverse. Turn VGG off
last.
