Circuit Description
Mimix Broadband’s 2 stage 1.5 to 6.0 GHz driver amplifier is
packaged in an RoHS compliant surface mount 3x3 QFN
package. The device is a self-biased, single supply design
with 13 dB gain and 14 dBm P1dB. This MMIC uses Mimix
Broadband’s 0.5um MESFET process. The device is fully
matched, and RF choke inductors are integrated on-chip, so
there is no need for external matching components, and it
can be directly cascaded. Care must be taken to isolate the
input and output from external DC voltages.
