LP7612P70 PACKAGED HIGH DYNAMIC RANGE PHEMT • FEATURES ♦ 20 dBm Output Power at 1-dB Compression at 18 GHz ♦ 7.5 dB Power Gain at 18 GHz ♦ 16 dB Small Signal Gain at 2 GHz ♦ 0.8 dB Noise Figure at 2 GHz • DESCRIPTION AND APPLICATIONS The LP7612P70 is a packaged Aluminum Gallium Arsenide / Indium Gallium Arsenide (AlGaAs/InGaAs) pseudomorphic High Electron Mobility Transistor (pHEMT), utilizing an Electron-Beam direct-write 0.25 µm by 200 µm Schottky barrier gate. The recessed “mushroom” Ti/Pt/Au gate structure minimizes parasitic gate-source and gate resistances. The epitaxial structure and processing have been optimized for high dynamic range. The LP7612’s active areas are passivated with Si3 N4 , and the P70 ceramic package is ideal for low-cost, high-performance applications that require a surface-mount package. Typical applications include high dynamic range receiver preamplifiers for commercial applications including Cellular/PCS systems, WLAN and WLL systems, and other types of high-gain applications for radio link systems. • ELECTRICAL SPECIFICATIONS @ TAmbient = 25°°C* Parameter Symbol Test Conditions Min Saturated Drain-Source Current** IDSS VDS = 2 V; VGS = 0 V 40 Power at 1-dB Compression P-1dB VDS = 5 V; IDS = 50% IDSS 19 20 dBm Power Gain at 1-dB Compression G-1dB VDS = 5 V; IDS = 50% IDSS 6.5 7 dB Power-Added Efficiency PAE VDS = 5 V; IDS = 50% IDSS 45 % Noise Figure NF VDS = 3.3 V; IDS = 25% IDSS; f=2 GHz 0.8 Maximum Drain-Source Current IMAX VDS = 2 V; VGS = 1 V 125 mA Transconductance GM VDS = 2 V; VGS = 0 V 80 mS Gate-Source Leakage Current IGSO VGS = -5 V Pinch-Off Voltage VP VDS = 2 V; IDS = 1 mA Gate-Source Breakdown Voltage Magnitude |VBDGS| IGS = 1 mA Gate-Drain Breakdown |VBDGD| IGD = 1 mA Voltage Magnitude *frequency=18 GHz, unless otherwise noted **Formerly binned as: LPD7612P70-1 = 40-65 mA and LPD7612P70–2 = 66-85 mA Phone: (408) 988-1845 Fax: (408) 970-9950 http:// www.filss.com 60 Typ Max Units 85 mA 1.2 dB 1 15 µA -0.25 -0.8 -1.5 V -6 -7 V -8 -9 V Revised: 1/20/01 Email: [email protected] LP7612P70 PACKAGED HIGH DYNAMIC RANGE PHEMT • ABSOLUTE MAXIMUM RATINGS Notes: • • • • Parameter Symbol Test Conditions Drain-Source Voltage VDS Gate-Source Voltage Min Max Units TAmbient = 22 ± 3 °C 6 V VGS TAmbient = 22 ± 3 °C -3 V Drain-Source Current IDS TAmbient = 22 ± 3 °C 2xIDSS mA Gate Current IG TAmbient = 22 ± 3 °C 5 mA RF Input Power PIN TAmbient = 22 ± 3 °C 60 mW Channel Operating Temperature TCH TAmbient = 22 ± 3 °C 175 ºC Storage Temperature TSTG — 175 ºC Total Power Dissipation PTOT TAmbient = 22 ± 3 °C 400 mW -65 Operating conditions that exceed the Absolute Maximum Ratings could result in permanent damage to the device. Power Dissipation defined as: PTOT ≡ (PDC + PIN) – POUT, where PDC: DC Bias Power PIN: RF Input Power POUT: RF Output Power Absolute Maximum Power Dissipation to be de-rated as follows above 25°C: PTOT= 400mW – (2.7 mW/°C) x THS where THS = heatsink or ambient temperature. This PHEMT is susceptible to damage from Electrostatic Discharge. Proper precautions should be used when handling these devices. • HANDLING PRECAUTIONS To avoid damage to the devices care should be exercised during handling. Proper Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) precautions should be observed at all stages of storage, handling, assembly, and testing. These devices should be treated as Class 1A (0-500 V). Further information on ESD control measures can be found in MIL-STD-1686 and MIL-HDBK-263. • APPLICATIONS NOTES & DESIGN DATA Applications Notes are available from your local Filtronic Sales Representative or directly from the factory. Complete design data, including S-parameters, noise data, and large-signal models are available on the Filtronic web site.
