Description

Avago Technologies AMMC-6241 is a high gain, low-noise

amplifier that operates from 26 GHz to 43 GHz. This LNA

provides a wide-band solution for system design since

it covers several bands, thus, reduces part inventory.

The device has input / output match to 50 Ohm, is un-

conditionally stable and can be used as either primary

or sub-sequential low noise gain stage. By eliminating

the complex tuning and assembly processes typically

required by hybrid (discrete-FET) amplifiers, the AMMC-

6241 is a cost-effective alternative in the 26 - 43 GHz com-

munications receivers. The backside of the chip is both RF

and DC ground. This helps simplify the assembly process

and reduces assembly related performance variations

and costs. It is fabricated in a PHEMT process to provide

exceptional noise and gain performance. For improved

reliability and moisture protection, the die is passivated

at the active areas.
