| GND | Gnd | - | Must be connected to a DC/RF ground potential with high thermal and electrical conductivity. Ensure that the ground voltage is a common reference potential to all DC power supplies |  |
| Port 1 | RF Input | SMAF | Port 1 is the RF input of the amplifier. It is DC blocked and has a 50 Ω input impedance. |  |
| Port 2 | Vd1 | - | Port 2 is the positive DC voltage supply pin for the 1st amplifier stage. Nominally 3V – 7V, 155 mA |  |
| Port 3 | Vg1 | - | Port 3 is the negative DC voltage bias pin for the 1st amplifier stage. Nominally -0.25V, <1 mA |  |
| Port 4 | Vd2 | - | Port 4 is the positive DC voltage supply pin for the 2nd amplifier stage. Nominally 3V – 7V, 155 mA | |
| Port 5 | Vg2 | - | Port 5 is the negative DC voltage bias pin for the 2nd amplifier stage. Nominally -0.25V, <1 mA | |
| Port 6 | Vd3 | - | Port 6 is the positive DC voltage supply pin for the 3rd amplifier stage. Nominally 13V-15V, 450 mA. Vg3 must be applied to Port 7 prior to application of Vd3! | |
| Port 7 | Vg3 | - | Port 7 is the negative DC voltage bias pin for the 3rd amplifier stage. Nominally -0.85V, <1 mA. Must be applied prior to application of Vd3 on Port 6! | |
| Port 8 | RF Output | SMAM | Port 8 is the RF output of the amplifier. It is DC blocked and has a 50 Ω output impedance. Load must be applied to meet maximum VSWR spec. | |

Recommended Operating Conditions
The Recommended Operating Conditions indicate the limits, inside which the device should be operated, to guarantee the performance given in Electrical Specifications. Operating outside these limits may not necessarily cause damage to the device, but the performance may degrade outside the limits of the electrical specifications. For limits, above which damage may occur, see Absolute Maximum Ratings. To keep the temperature below 60°C, the user is advised to use a fan to keep a constant airflow over the heat sink.
| Parameter | Min | Nominal | Max | Unit |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Ambient Temperature | -40 | 25 | 40 | °C |
| Positive DC Voltage (Port 2, Port 4) | 3 | 7 | 7 | V |
| Positive DC Current (Port 2, Port 4) | 100 | 155 | 275 | mA |
| Positive DC Voltage (Port 6) | 12 | 15 | 15 | V |
| Positive DC Current (Port 6) 1 | 200 | 450 | 500 | mA |
[1] To protect the output stage of the module, ensure that Port 6 never pulls more than 500 mA of DC current. Current pull will increase with increased RF input power and with decreased negative bias on Port 7.
