General Description
Mimix Broadband’s three stage 17.0-25.0 GHz GaAs MMIC buffer amplifier has a small signal gain of 20.0 dB with a +28.0 dBm P1dB output compression point across the band. The device also includes an on-chip temperature compensated output power detector. This MMIC uses Mimix Broadband’s 0.15 µm GaAs PHEMT device model technology, and is based upon electron beam lithography to ensure high repeatability and uniformity.
