UMS CHA2292-99F/00 16-24ghz low noise, variable gain amplifier Datasheet

CHA2292
RoHS COMPLIANT
16-24GHz Low Noise, Variable Gain Amplifier
GaAs Monolithic Microwave IC
Description
The CHA2292 is a high gain four-stage
monolithic low noise amplifier with variable gain.
It is designed for a wide range of applications,
from military to commercial communication
systems.The backside of the chip is both RF and
DC grounded. This helps simplify the assembly
process.
The circuit is manufactured with a PM-HEMT
process, 0.25µm gate length, via holes through
the substrate, air bridges and electron beam
gate lithography.
It is available in chip form.

(1) These values are representative of on-wafer measurements that are made without bonding
wires at RF ports.
(2) For optimum noise figure, the bias current Id1 should be adjusted to 35mA with Vg1 voltage.
(3) With Id1=35mA, adjust Vg2,3,4 voltage for a total drain current around 160mA.
