VWA5000014AA

Abstract – The VWA 50014 AA is a distributed amplifier designed on a 0.15 μm pHEMT process. The device is capable of output voltage up to 8Vpp and has more than +23dBm of output power at saturation regime, up to 28GHz. It provides more than +21dBm of output power at 1 dB of gain compression, up to 20GHz.The linear gain is of 16dB from DC to 28GHz, with an excellent group delay. The design has been optimized to provide high efficiency. The supply current is as low as 200mA when operating with VD= +9V. This device needs an RF Output external bias-tee to bias the drain and an RF input external DCBlock.
