CHA2193

CHA2193 RoHS COMPLIANT 20-30GHz Low Noise Amplifier GaAs Monolithic Microwave IC Description The CHA2193 is a three stages low noise amplifier. It is designed for a wide range of applications, from military to commercial communication systems. The backside of the chip is both RF and DC grounds. This helps simplify the assembly process. The circuit is manufactured with a HEMT process, 0.25µm gate length, via holes through the substrate, air bridges and electron beam gate lithography. It is available in chip form. 20 18 16 Gain (dB) Main Features ¦ 2.0 dB noise figure ¦ 18 dB ± 1dB gain ¦ 8 dBm output power (-1dB gain comp.) ¦ Very good broadband input matching ¦ DC power consumption, 60mA @ 3.5V ¦ Chip size : 2.07 x 1.03 x 0.10 mm 14 12 10 8 6 4 2 0 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 NF (dB) Frequency ( GHz ) Typical on Wafer Measurements Main Characteristics Tamb. = 25°C Symbol Fop G NF P1dB Id Parameter Operating frequency range Small signal gain Noise figure Output power at 1dB gain compression Bias current Min 20 16 Typ Max 30 Unit GHz dB 18 2.0 2.5 dB dBm 6 8 60 100 mA ESD Protection : Electrostatic discharge sensitive device.

Nominal bias for low noise operation is obtained for a typical current of 20 mA for the second and third stages and 10 mA for the first stage ( 50 mA for the amplifier ). The first step to bias the amplifier is to tune the Vgs1 = -1V, and Vgs2 to drive 40 mA for the full amplifier. Then Vgs1 is reduced to obtain 50 mA of current through the amplifier. A fine tuning of the noise figure may be obtained by modifying the Vgs1 bias voltage, but keeping the previous value for Vgs2.
