A new power amplifier from M/A-COM Technology Solutions is available at Richardson RFPD. The MAAP-011199 is a balanced 3-stage gallium arsenide (GaAs) pHEMT MMIC power amplifier that operates from 80 to 100GHz and typically provides +24dBm of saturated output power. The power amplifier’s balanced architecture results in excellent input and output match to 50Ω across the entire 80–100GHz frequency band, and the multi-stage design provides high gain of 12dB.

The new PA is designed for E-band communication, sensor, imaging and instrumentation applications.

According to MACOM, additional key features of the MAAP-011199 include:

  • Input return loss: >15 dB
  • Output return loss: >15 dB
  • Reverse isolation: >30 dB
  • Quiescent drain current: 400 mA
  • P1dB: +22 dBm
  • Dimensions: 1.8 mm x 2.0 mm
  • Bare die
