Description
Agilent Technologies’s
ATF-531P8 is a single-voltage
high linearity, low noise
E-pHEMT housed in an 8-lead
JEDEC-standard leadless
plastic chip carrier (LPCC [3])
package. The device is ideal as
a high linearity, low-noise,
medium-power amplifier. Its
operating frequency range is
from 50 MHz to 6 GHz.
Pin Connections and
Package Marking
Note:
1. Enhancement mode technology employs a
single positive Vgs, eliminating the need of
negative gate voltage associated with
conventional depletion mode devices.
2. Refer to reliability datasheet for detailed
MTTF data.
3. Conforms to JEDEC reference outline MO229
for DRP-N
4. Linearity Figure of Merit (LFOM) is essentially
OIP3 divided by DC bias power.

The thermally efficient package
measures only 2 mm x 2 mm x
0.75 mm. Its backside
metalization provides excellent
thermal dissipation as well as
visual evidence of solder reflow.
The device has a Point MTTF of
over 300 years at a mounting
temperature of +85°C. All
devices are 100% RF & DC tested.
• Excellent uniformity in product

@ 4V, 180 mA.
Notes:
1. Fmin values at 2 GHz and higher are based on measurements while the Fmins below 2 GHz have been extrapolated. The Fmin values are based on a set of
16 noise figure measurements made at 16 different impedances using an ATN NP5 test system. From these measurements a true Fmin is calculated.
2. S and noise parameters are measured on a microstrip line made on 0.025 inch thick alumina carrier. The input reference plane is at the end of the gate
lead. The output reference plane is at the end of the drain lead.

@ 4V, 75 mA.
Notes:
1. Fmin values at 2 GHz and higher are based on measurements while the Fmins below 2 GHz have been extrapolated. The Fmin values are based on a set of
16 noise figure measurements made at 16 different impedances using an ATN NP5 test system. From these measurements a true Fmin is calculated.
2. S and noise parameters are measured on a microstrip line made on 0.025 inch thick alumina carrier. The input reference plane is at the end of the gate
lead. The output reference plane is at the end of the drain lead.

@ 3V, 135 mA.
Notes:
1. Fmin values at 2 GHz and higher are based on measurements while the Fmins below 2 GHz have been extrapolated. The Fmin values are based on a set of
16 noise figure measurements made at 16 different impedances using an ATN NP5 test system. From these measurements a true Fmin is calculated.
2. S and noise parameters are measured on a microstrip line made on 0.025 inch thick alumina carrier. The input reference plane is at the end of the gate
lead. The output reference plane is at the end of the drain lead.
