Port Configuration and Functions
AMM-9024PSM
DC-50 GHz GaAs Surface Mount Low Noise Amplifier
Port Functions
| Port | Function | Description | DC Equivalent Circuit |
|---|---|---|---|
| GND | Ground | Ground paddle and non-connected pins must be connected to a DC/RF ground potential with high thermal and electrical conductivity, and low inductance. |  |
| Pin 11 | Vd | Pin 11 is the DC bias supply for the amplifier. |  |
| Pin 2 | RF Input | Pin 2 is the RF input of the amplifier. This input is internally RF matched to 50 Ohms. |  |
| Pin 5 | Vg | This pin provides DC bias to the gate of the amplifier. This pin requires a negative bias voltage for normal operation. The drain current Id of the amplifier will be controlled by the voltage applied to this pin. As this voltage becomes more positive, drain current will increase. For normal operation, the voltage on this pin should be set to produce a drain current of 45mA. |  |
| Pin 8 | RF Output | Pin 8 is the RF output. This pin is internally RF matched to 50 ohms. | |
| Pins 1,3,4,6,7,9,10,12 | Non-connect (NC) | These pins are not internally connected to the amplifier die. It is recommended to connect these pins to ground to provide RF isolation and mechanical stability. See the recommended landing pattern for details. Datasheet performance was measured with these pins connected to GND. | - |
