MAAM-009286 RF Driver Amplifier Rev. V1 250 - 4000 MHz Functional Schematic Features +42 dBm Output IP3 Broadband Operation Lead-Free SOT-89 Package Halogen-Free Green Mold Compound RoHS* Compliant and 260C Reflow Compatible Class 2 ESD Rating Description The MAAM-009286 RF driver amplifier is a GaAs MMIC which exhibits exceptional linearity, as well as PPPPiiiinnnn 1111 high gain in a lead-free SOT-89 surface mount RRRRFFFF IIIInnnn RRRRFFFF OOOOuuuutttt // BBiiasas plastic package. Broadband operation over the 250 to 4000 MHz range is achieved using external matching components as shown in the PCB layout. Pin Configuration Different component values may be needed to optimize performance at different center Pin No. Function Pin No. Function frequencies. The device is biased with a single +5 1 RF Input 3 RF Output/Bias volt supply and consumes 155 mA typically. 2 Ground The MAAM-009286 is fabricated using an HBT process to realize low current and high linearity. The 3 Maximum Operating Conditions process features full passivation for increased Maximum Operating performance and reliability.
