A top-down view of the AMM-6702UC’s outline drawing is shown below. The port functions are detailed below.
| Port | Function | Connector Type | Description | DC Equivalent Circuit |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| GND | Ground | - | Exterior housing must be connected to a DC/RF ground potential with high thermal and electrical conductivity. | |
| RF In | RF Input | 1.85F | This is the RF Input port of the amplifier die. It is internally DC blocked and RF matched to 50 Ω. | ![]() |
| RF Out | RF Output | 1.85M | This is the RF Output port of the amplifier die. It is internally DC blocked and RF matched to 50 Ω. | ![]() |
| Vd | Drain Supply Pin | - | The Vd pin supplies drain voltage to the amplifier IC. Apply gate voltage Vg before applying drain voltage. | ![]() |
| Vg | Gate Supply Pin | - | The Vg pin supplies negative control voltage to the amplifier and controls the amplifier gain. Lower (more negative) voltages on a Vg pad will result in lower drain current and lower small signal gain. | ![]() |
