MAAL-FR1250

GaN Low Noise Amplifier 8 - 12 GHz

The MAAL-FR1250 is a 3-stage low noise amplifier  (LNA) designed to operate from 8 - 12 GHz with  1.4 dB of noise figure and 24 dB of gain at 10 GHz.  This LNA is matched to 50 Ω at both input and  output ports.  The MAAL-FR1250 has a single positive voltage  bias which includes a DC current regulation. This  device is ideally suited to satellite communication  and radar applications. The MAAL-FR1250 is manufactured using a high  performance 100 nm gate length GaN on Si HEMT  power technology. The MMIC uses gold bonding  pads and backside metallization and is protected  with silicon nitride passivation to obtain the highest  level of reliability.
