Features
Fundamental Transmitter Low DC Power Consumption Optional Power Bias Configuration 0.0 d B Conversion Gain +12.0 d Bm Third Order Intercept (IIP3) 100% On-Wafer RF and DC Testing 100% Visual Inspection to MIL-STD-883 Method 2010
General Description
Mimix Broadband’s 17.0-27.0 GHz Ga As MMIC transmitter has a small signal conversion gain of 0.0 d B with a third order intercept of +12.0 d Bm across the band. The device is a single fundamental mixer followed by a single stage amplifier. This MMIC uses Mimix Broadband’s 0.15 µm Ga As 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 attach process. This device is well suited for Millimeter-wave Point-to Point Radio, LMDS, SAT and VSAT applications.
