DESCRIPTION
The TC1901 is a broadband general-purpose medium power MMIC amplifier that operates in 2 to 20 GHz frequency
range. The amplifier provides a 11.5 dB of typical gain and delivers 22.5 dBm of typical output power. The MMIC is
fabricated using a mature GaAs PHEMT process. The process features all passivation for increased performance and
reliability. All devices are 100% DC tested to assure consistent quality. Bond pads are gold plated for either
thermocompression or thermosonic wire bonding. Backside gold plating is compatible with standard AuSn
die-attach.
