RoHS Compliant Amplifier, Power, 13W 0.7-2.5 GHz MAAP-000077-PKG001 Rev — Advance Datasheet Features ♦ 13 Watt Saturated Output Power Level ♦ Variable Drain Voltage (6-10V) Operation ♦ MSAG™ Process Primary Applications ♦ Radio Communications ♦ Test Equipment ♦ Radar Description The MAAP-000077-PKG001 is a 2-stage 13W power amplifier with on-chip bias networks in a 10 lead flange-mount ceramic package, allowing easy assembly. The package is hermetic and provides an excellent thermal path. This product is fully matched to 50 ohms on both the input and output. External DC blocking capacitors are not required since they are incorporated into the MMIC design. It can be used as a power amplifier stage or as a driver stage in high power applications. Fabricated using M/A-COM’s repeatable, high performance and highly reliable GaAs Multifunction Self-Aligned Gate (MSAG™)Process, each device is 100% RF tested on wafer to ensure performance compliance.

Recommended Bias Configuration Assembly Instructions: This flange mount style package provides a robust interface between a highly integrated GaAs MMIC device and a circuit board which may be assembled using conventional surface mount techniques. A thin shim made of a thermally and electrically conductive, ductile material must be used prior to installation of the ceramic package for proper thermal and electrical performance. Refer to M/A-COM Application Note #M567* for more information regarding shim material and mounting screw torque requirements. For applications where surface mount components are to be installed after the ceramic package installation, this package will not be damaged when subjected to typical convection or IR oven reflow profiles. Refer to M/A-COM Application Note #M538* for maximum allowable reflow time and temperature. Alternatively, the package leads may be individually soldered. Whether an iron or hot gas soldering equipment is used, care should be taken to insure that the temperature is well controlled and electric static discharge (ESD) safe. * Application Notes are available upon request. Biasing Notes: ♦ A negative bias must be applied to VGG before applying a positive bias to VDD to prevent damage to the amplifier. 4 M/A-COM Inc. and its affiliates reserve the right to make changes to the product(s) or information contained herein without notice.
