Description

The MAAPSS0111 is a four

stage MMIC power

amplifier designed specifically for Ku-Band VSAT

applications. It can be used as either a driver or an

output stage amplifier.

The MAAPSS0111 is fully

matched input and output to 50 ohms which

eliminates

any

sensitive

external

RF

tuning

components. The device is packaged in a lead free

6 mm 28-lead PQFN leadless package for high

volume manufacturing.

The MAAPSS0111 is fabricated using a high

reliability self-aligned gate MESFET process, MSAG,

to realize good power added efficiency and gain.

The MSAG process features full passivation for high

performance and reliability.
