Description
The Filtronic LMA116 is a GaAs monolithic distributive amplifier which operates from 2 to 10GHz. This amplifier is self biased and four
450µm FETs are used to produce a typical gain of 15dB and a noise figure of 4.5dB. The LMA116 is suitable for gain block, low noise and
driver amplifier applications. DC decoupled output RF port. Ground is provided to the circuitry through vias to the backside metallization.

Notes:
1.) Recommended lead bond technique is thermocompression wedge bonding with 0.001” (25µm) diameter wire. The bond
tool force shall be 35-38 gram. Bonding stage temperature shall be 230-240°C, heated tool (150-160°C) is recommended.
Ultrasonic bonding is not recommended.
2.) The recommended die attach is Ablebond silver epoxy, the stabilize bake temperature is set at 150°C for 45 minutes.
3.) Bond on bond or stitch bond acceptable.
4.) Conductor over conductor acceptable. Conductors must not short.
