Description

M/A-COM’s MAAMSS0044 is a GaAs PHEMT MMIC

amplifier in a lead-free 4 mm 20-lead PQFN

package. The MMIC design is configured as a pair

of cascode PHEMT amplifiers for broadband

performance. It is designed for integration in a 75 Ω

push-pull, low distortion, amplifier circuit.

The

device is ideally suited for use in CATV, FTTX, DBS,

and HDTV applications where low noise figure and

low distortion are required.
