Description
Agilent Technologies’s
• Excellent uniformity in product
specifications
ATF-531P8 is a single-voltage
high linearity, low noise
E-pHEMT housed in an 8-lead
JEDEC-standard leadless
plastic chip carrier (LPCC[3])
package. The device is ideal as
a high linearity, low-noise,
medium-power amplifier. Its
operating frequency range is
from 50 MHz to 6 GHz.

metalization provides excellent
thermal dissipation as well as
visual evidence of solder reflow.
The device has a Point MTTF of
over 300 years at a mounting
temperature of +85°C. All

Note:
• 10.7 dB LFOM[4]
Package marking provides orientation and
identification:
• 24.5 dBm output power at 1 dB gain
compression
“3P” = Device Code
devices are 100% RF & DC tested.
“x” = Date code indicates the month of
manufacture.
Note:
1. Enhancement mode technology employs a
single positive Vgs, eliminating the need of
negative gate voltage associated with
conventional depletion mode devices.
Applications
• Front-end LNA Q1 and Q2 driver or
pre-driver amplifier for Cellular/
PCS and WCDMA wireless
infrastructure
2. Refer to reliability datasheet for detailed
MTTF data.
3. Conforms to JEDEC reference outline MO229
for DRP-N
• Driver amplifier for WLAN,
WLL/RLL and MMDS applications
4. Linearity Figure of Merit (LFOM) is essentially
OIP3 divided by DC bias power.
• General purpose discrete E-pHEMT
for other high linearity applications
