REV5_20050418
4.9 - 6 GHz 29dBm Single-Bias MMIC
FEATURES
• P-1 dB: 29 dBm
• Small Signal Gain: 21 dB
• Power Added Efficiency: 25 %
PHOTO ENLARGEMENT
• IP3: 39 dBm
• Match to 50 Ω operation
• Bias condition: 400 mA @ 8 V
DESCRIPTION
The TC3532 is a 2-stage PHEMT MMIC power amplifier with single-bias. It requires only a single positive supply. It
is designed for use in low cost and high volume 4.9~6 GHz band applications. The MMIC is matched to 50Ω operation.
No external matching component is required. It provides a typical gain of 21 dB and P1dB power of 29 dBm. Typical
bias condition is 8V at 400 mA. The MMIC is packaged in a Ceramic 10 Pins package. The copper based carrier of the
package allows direct soldering of the device to the PCB.
APPLICATIONS
• Wireless Internet Access

Application Notes:
For better heat sinking and grounding, it's
recommended to have the via holes
beneath TC3532 filled with solder and
have two screws besides TC3532
installed on the PCB area.
