All components are 0603 size unless stated on the schematic. 4. The amplifier should be connected directly to a +9 V regulator; no dropping resistor is required. 5. If no DC signal is present at the input (pin 1), C1 can be removed. The gate (input pin) is internally grounded in the amplifier. 6. For higher frequencies of operation, use a lower value L2 inductor.

All dimensions are in millimeters. Angles are in degrees. 2. Dimension and tolerance formats conform to ASME Y14.4M-1994. 3. The terminal #1 identifier and terminal numbering conform to JESD 95-1 SPP-012. PCB Mounting Pattern Notes: 1. Ground / thermal vias are critical for the proper performance of this device. Vias should use a .35mm (#80 / .0135”) diameter drill and have a final plated thru diameter of .25 mm (.010”). 2. Add as much copper as possible to inner and outer layers near the part to ensure optimal thermal performance. 3. Mounting screws can be added near the part to fasten the board to a heatsink. Ensure that the ground / thermal via region contacts the heatsink. 4. Do not put solder mask on the backside of the PC board in the region where the board contacts the heatsink. 5. RF trace width depends upon the PC board material and construction. 6. Use 1 oz. Copper minimum.
