) These values are representative of on-wafer measurements that are made without bonding wires
at the RF ports.When the chip is attached with typical 0.15nH input and output bonding wires, the
indicated parameters should be improved
.
(2) 45 mA is the typical bias current used for on wafer measurements, with Vg1= Vg2.
For optimum noise figure, the bias current could be reduced down to 30 mA, adjusting the
Vg1,2 voltage.
