Pin Names and Descriptions
Pin
Name
Description
1
RFIN
RF Input. This pad is DC coupled and matched to 50Ω from DC to
20GHz. 50Ω microstrip transmission line on 0.127mm (5mil) thick
alumina thin film substrate is recommended for RF input and
output.
2
VG2
VG2 is an optional pad. It may be used to bias the cascode gate of
the amplifier. If this port is used, a 1000pF bypass capacitor with
the shortest wirebond length possible is recommended to prevent
low frequency gain ripple.
3
VTO
The output drain termination pad. This pad requires a suggested
1000pF bypass capacitor with the shortest wirebond length to
prevent low frequency gain ripple. The value of the external
capacitance limits the low frequency response of the amplifier.
4
RFOUT and
VDD
5
VCAS
Provides VG2 gate voltage to the cascode amplifier. The value is
~ (VCC/2 – absolute value of VTI).
6
VG21
Not connected.
Interface Schematic
RF Output. 50Ω microstrip transmission line on 0.127mm (5mil)
thick alumina thin film substrate is recommended for RF input and
output. Connect the DC bias (VDD) network to provide drain current
(IDD).
7
VTI
Input gate voltage, used to bias the amplifier. The value is between
-1.5VDC (device is pinched OFF) to +0.2VDC (fully ON). This pad
requires a bypass capacitor to ground with the shortest possible
wirebond length to prevent low frequency gain ripple. The value of
the external capacitance limits the low frequency response of the
amplifier.
Die
GND
Ground connection. Connect die bottom directly to ground plane for
best performance. NOTE: The die should be connected directly to
the ground plane with conductive epoxy.

Measurement Technique
All specifications and typical performances reported in this document were measured in the following manner. Data was taken
using a temperature controlled probe station utilizing 150μm pitch GSG probes. The interface between the probes and integrated
circuit was made with a coplanar to microstrip ceramic test interface. The test interface was then wire bonded to the
die as shown in the figure below using 1mil diameter bondwires. The spacing between the test interface and the die was
200μm, and the bond wire loop height was 100μm. The thickness of the test interface is 125μm (5mil). The calibration of the
test fixture included the probes and test interfaces, so that the measurement reference plane was at the point of bond wire
attachment. Therefore, all data represents the integrated circuit and accompanying bond wires.
