ATF-45171

2 – 8 GHz Medium Power Gallium Arsenide FET Technical Data ATF-45171 Features • High Output Power: 29.0 dBm Typical P 1 dB at 4 GHz • High Gain at 1dB Compression: 10.5 dB Typical G1 dB at 4 GHz • High Power Efficiency: 38% Typical at 4 GHz • Hermetic Metal-Ceramic Stripline Package range. This nominally 0.5 micron gate length GaAs FET is an interdigitated four-cell structure using airbridge interconnects between drain fingers. Total gate periphery is 2.5 millimeters. Proven gold based metallization systems and nitride passivation assure a rugged, reliable device. This device is suitable for applications in space, airborne, military ground and shipboard, and commercial environments. It is supplied in a hermetic high reliability package with low parasitic reactance and minimum thermal resistance. 70 mil Flange Package Description The ATF-45171 is a gallium arsenide Schottky-barrier-gate field effect transistor designed for medium power, linear amplification in the 2 to 8 GHz frequency Electrical Specifications, TA = 25°C Symbol P1 dB G1 dB ηadd gm IDSS VP Parameters and Test Conditions Power Output @ 1 dB Gain Compression: VDS = 9 V, IDS = 250 mA 1 dB Compressed Gain: VDS = 9 V, IDS = 250 mA Efficiency @ P1 dB: VDS = 9 V, IDS = 250 mA Transconductance: VDS = 2.5 V, IDS = 250 mA Saturated Drain Current: VDS = 1.75 V, VGS = 0 V Pinch-off Voltage: VDS = 2.5 V, IDS =12.5 mA f = 4.0 GHz f = 8.0 GHz f = 4.0 GHz f = 8.0 GHz f = 4.0 GHz Units dBm dB % mmho mA V 400 -5.4 Min. 28.0 9.5 Typ.

Permanent damage may occur if any of these limits are exceeded. 2. TCASE TEMPERATURE = 25°C. 3. Derate at 24 mW/°C for TCASE > 24°C. 4. The small spot size of this technique results in a higher, though more accurate determination of θjc than do alternate methods. See MEASUREMENTS section for more information.
