Heterojunction Bipolar Transistor
Technology (InGaP HBT)
MMG3H21NT1
Broadband High Linearity Amplifier
The MMG3H21NT1 is a general purpose amplifier that is internally input
matched and internally output matched. It is designed for a broad range of
Class A, small--signal, high linearity, general purpose applications. It is
suitable for applications with frequencies from 0 to 6000 MHz such as
cellular, PCS, BWA, WLL, PHS, CATV, VHF, UHF, UMTS and general
small--signal RF.

For Software and Tools, do a Part Number search at http://www.freescale.com, and select the “Part Number” link. Go to
Software & Tools on the part’s Product Summary page to download the respective tool.
FAILURE ANALYSIS
At this time, because of the physical characteristics of the part, failure analysis is limited to electrical signature analysis. In
cases where Freescale is contractually obligated to perform failure analysis (FA) services, full FA may be performed by third
party vendors with moderate success. For updates contact your local Freescale Sales Office.
REVISION HISTORY
The following table summarizes revisions to this document.
Revision
Date
Description
0
Apr. 2008
Initial Release of Data Sheet
1
Jan. 2011
Corrected temperature at which ThetaJC is measured from 25C to 84C and added “no RF applied” to
Thermal Characteristics table to indicate that thermal characterization is performed under DC test with no
RF signal applied, p. 1
Removed ICC bias callout from applicable graphs as bias is not a controlled value, pp. 4--7
Removed ICC bias callout from Table 10, Common Source S--Parameters heading as bias is not a
controlled value, pp. 8--9
Added .s2p file and Printed Circuit Boards availability to Software and Tools, p. 14
2
Sept. 2012
Replaced the PCB Pad Layout drawing, the package isometric and mechanical outline for Case 1514--02
(SOT--89) with Case 2142--01 (SOT--89) as a result of the device transfer from a Freescale wafer fab to an
external GaAs wafer fab and new assembly site. The new assembly and test site’s SOT--89 package has
slight dimensional differences, pp. 1, 10--13. Refer to PCN13337, GaAs Fab Transfer.
Table 6, ESD Protection Characteristics, removed the word “Minimum” after the ESD class rating. ESD
ratings are characterized during new product development but are not 100% tested during production. ESD
ratings provided in the data sheet are intended to be used as a guideline when handling ESD sensitive
devices, p. 3
Added Fig. 21, Product Marking, p. 10
3
Sept. 2014
Table 2, Maximum Ratings: updated Junction Temperature from 150C to 175C to reflect recent test
results of the device, p. 1
Added Failure Analysis information, p. 13
