MAAM-011100 Broadband Variable Gain Amplifier (VGA) Rev. V2 400 MHz - 20 GHz Features Functional Schematic 12 dB Gain 50 Input / Output Match over Gain Range 30 dB Gain Control with 0 to -2 V Control RF / OUT 6 N/C 1 +18 dBm Output Power V D +5 V, -0.5 V DC, 70 mA Lead-Free 1.5 x 1.2 mm 6-lead TDFN Package RoHS* Compliant and 260C Reflow Compatible 5 N/C 2 N/C Description The MAAM-011100 is an easy-to-use, broadband, RF / IN V 44 3 C general purpose variable gain amplifier. Its over V G 30 dB gain range is controlled by a single control pin and 50 match is maintained over all settings. The MAAM-011100 operates from 400 MHz to Pin Configuration 20 GHz and features flat gain control from +10 dB to -20 dB. At maximum gain setting (V =Open) it C Pin No. Pin Name Function delivers up to +18 dBm power and under 5 dB noise figure. Both reduce proportionally as gain is reduced 1 RF /V RF Output OUT D with V . The input IP3 exceeds +15 dBm at max/min C gain settings. The device is typically biased with a 2 N/C No Connection V = +5 V, V = -0.5 V, and a control of 0 V to -2 V. D G Typical current is 70 mA with V at -0.5 V G 3 RF /V RF Input IN G The MAAM-011100 is ideally suited for use as a 4 V Voltage Control C power amplifier driver, gain trimming block, or temperature compensation in the receive or transmit 5 N/C No Connection mode. Typical applications include Wi-Fi, LTE. 6 N/C No Connection Point-to-Point, IMS, EW, and A&D systems. 3 7 Paddle Ground This device is assembled in a leadless 1.5 X 1.2 mm package that can be handled and placed with 3.

Please observe the following precautions to avoid Input Power +15 dBm damage: Operating Voltage +8 Volts Static Sensitivity Operating Current 110 mA Gallium Arsenide Integrated Circuits are sensitive 7 Junction Temperature +150C to electrostatic discharge (ESD) and can be damaged by static electricity. Proper ESD control Operating Temperature -40C to +85C techniques should be used when handling these Storage Temperature -65C to +150C devices. 4. Exceeding any one or combination of these limits may cause permanent damage to this device. 5. MACOM does not recommend sustained operation near these survivability limits. 6.
