General Description
Mimix Broadband's three stage 43.5-46.5 GHz GaAs MMIC power amplifier has a small signal gain of 14.0 dB with +24.0 dBm P1dB output compression point. This MMIC uses Mimix Broadband’s 0.15 µm GaAs PHEMT device model technology, and is based upon electron beam lithography to ensure high repeatability and uniformity. The chip has surface passivation to protect and provide a rugged part with backside via holes and gold metallization to allow either a conductive epoxy or eutectic solder die www.
