45
GHz – 11 dB – 16 dBm
Low Noise MMIC
Description
The
VWA-50025-AAAA
is an analog Low Noise/
medium power MMIC amplifier for ultra wide band
applications up to 45GHz, with flat group delay.
The device is designed in 0.15µm low noise pHEMT
process.
The devices is capable of more than +15 dBm output
power at 1 dB compression point, and provide more
than 11dB of gain from DC to 43 GHz with less than
1
dB of Gain variation with an excellent group delay up
to 43GHz (less than +/- 3ps). The Design has been
optimized to provide high efficiency, supply current is
as low as 90mA with Vb=+8V.
The MMIC integrates an output power monitoring
function: a 24 dB tap coupler delivers the image of the
output level on a dedicated pad, and a peak detector is
available on the die. Connecting the input of the peak
detector to the tap coupler output will generate a DC
signal, at the output of the detector, monitoring the
output signal. A reference diode is also available for
temperature stabilization of the detector function.
S2P file can be provided for system design simulation.
GDSII file is also available for mechanical design.
