Available in 2,8 x 1,73 x 0,1 mm bare-die and 5 x 5 mm, 32-lead AQFN packaged formats, MACOM Technology Solutions’ MAAL-011151 is well suited for use as a low phase-noise amplifier stage for signal generation applications spanning a host of system designs targeting test and measurement, electronic warfare, ECM, and radar.
Phase noise is a critical specification in defining the frequency stability of a signal source, with significant implications for receiver sensitivity performance. The MAAL-011151 minimises phase noise contribution in providing LO signal gain, enhancing spectral integrity for test and measurement and communications systems, target acquisition for radar, and aerospace and defence applications.
The device will provide 16 dB of linear gain across the 2 to 18 GHz frequency band, 17,5 dBm of P1dB and 5 dB of noise figure at 10 GHz, with input and outputs that are fully matched to 50Ω and are DC blocked. Amplifier control is available through the use of a control circuit or by direct bias injection. The MAAL-011151 is fabricated using a low phase-noise HBT process which features full passivation for enhanced reliability.
