Description
The MAAP-011022 is a 2.7 to 3.0 GHz high power
balanced amplifier, which is designed for S-Band
aviation and weather radar applications. This device
puts out 7 W pulsed and is designed to operate at an
8% duty cycle.
The MAAP-011022 is packaged in a lead-free 6 mm
28-lead plastic package for high volume
manufacturing. This IC utilizes one of MACOM’s
advanced 0.5 µm processes, which has been
optimized so amplifiers, passives, and control
components can be combined on a single IC.
This MAAP-011022 is specifically targeted for
avionics and weather radar.

3. See the evaluation board schematic for the recommended
external components.
4. VDAx and VDBx are connected to the +10 V bias.
5. The gates are controlled internally from the bias circuit shown
on the evaluation board schematic but need to be bypassed
as shown. VGAx must be connected to VGBx.
6. HPACNTRL is tied to +5 V for drain switching. For gate
switching the PA is turned off when HPACNTRL is at 0 V.
7. The exposed pad centered on the package bottom must be
connected to RF, DC and thermal ground.

Handling Procedures
Please observe the following precautions to avoid
damage:
Static Sensitivity
Gallium Arsenide and Silicon 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.
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.
12. Operating at nominal conditions with TJ ≤ 160°C will ensure
MTTF > 1 x 106 hours.
13. VGAx, VGBx can go to +0.3 V if no drain voltage is applied.
14. Junction Temperature (TJ) = TC + ӨJC * ((V * I) - (POUT - PIN))
Typical thermal resistance:
80 µs pulse, 8% duty cycle, ӨJC = 2.0°C/W
a) For TC = +25°C,
TJ = 62 °C @ 10 V, 2.5 A, POUT = 6.6 W, PIN = 0.07 W
b) For TC = +85°C,
TJ = 143 °C @ 10 V, 3.4 A, POUT = 5.0 W, PIN = 0.07 W

15. The standard build configuration is to omit resistors R15 & R16. This configuration activates the on-board +10 V pulser circuit.
16. In order to bypass on-board +10 V pulser circuit, remove R13, R14, R17 & R18, and add R15 & R16.
