Description
VBIAS_IN
The MAAM-011182 is an RF amplifier assembled in
a 2 mm 8-lead PDFN plastic package. This amplifier
provides 18 dB of ultra flat gain while biased at
8 volts. The amplifier provides excellent linearity.
The MAAM-011182 provides high gain, low noise
and low distortion making it ideally suited for 75
infrastructure applications.
The MAAM-011182 is fabricated using GaAs
pHEMT technology.

Handling Procedures
Please observe the following precautions to avoid
damage:
Input Power
12 dBm
Operating Voltage
10 volts
Operating Temperature
-40°C to +85°C
Storage Temperature
-65°C to +150°C
Static Sensitivity
These electronic devices are sensitive to
electrostatic discharge (ESD) and can be damaged
by static electricity. Proper ESD control techniques
should be used when handling these HBM Class1A,
CDM Class IV devices.
4. Exceeding any one or combination of these limits may cause
permanent damage to this device.
5. MACOM does not recommend sustained operation near these
survivability limits.
6. These operating conditions will ensure MTTF > 1 x 106 hours.
7. Junction Temperature (T J) = Case Temperature (TC) + Өjc*(V*I)
Typical thermal resistance (ӨJC) = 43.3°C/W.
a) For T C = 25°C,
TJ = 71.7°C @ 8 V, 135 mA
b) For T C = 85°C,
TJ = 131.7°C @ 8 V, 135 mA
