TGF2018 180 um Discrete GaAs pHEMT Applications Defense & Aerospace High-Reliability Test and Measurement Commercial Broadband Wireless Product Features Functional Block Diagram Frequency Range: DC - 20 GHz 22 dBm Typical Output Power - P1dB 14 dB Typical Gain at 12 GHz 55% Typical PAE at 12 GHz 1 dB Typical NF at 12 GHz No Vias Technology: 0.25 um GaAs pHEMT Chip Dimensions: 0.41 x 0.34 x 0.10 mm General Description Pad Configuration The TriQuint TGF2018 is a discrete 180 micron pHEMT Pad Dimensions Terminals which operates from DC to 20 GHz. The TGF2018 is G (71um X 71um) Gate fabricated using TriQuints proven standard 0.25 um D (71um X 71um) Drain power pHEMT production process. This process S (121um X 71um) Source features advanced techniques to optimize microwave power and efficiency at high drain bias operating conditions. The TGF2018 typically provides 22 dBm of output power at P1dB with gain of 14 dB and 55% power-added efficiency at 1 dB compression. This performance makes the TGF2018 appropriate for high efficiency applications. The protective overcoat layer with silicon nitride provides a level of environmental robustness and scratch protection. The TGF2018 is lead-free and RoHS compliant.

These ratings represent the maximum operable values for this device. Stresses beyond those listed under Absolute Maximum Ratings may cause permanent damage to the device and/or affect device lifetime. These are stress ratings only, and functional operation of the device at these conditions is not implied. 2. Combinations of supply voltage, supply current, input power, and output power shall not exceed the maximum total power dissipation listed in the table. 3. Junction operating temperature will directly affect the device median time to failure. For maximum life, it is recommended that junction temperatures be maintained at the lowest possible levels. 4. When operated at this channel temperature, the median life is 1.0E+5 hours. 5. When operated at this channel temperature, the median life is 1.0E+6 hours. Electrical Characteristics Test conditions unless otherwise noted: Temperature= 25C.
