Electrical Specications
1. Small/Large -signal data measured in a fully de-embedded test xture form TA = 25°C.
2. Data obtained from on-wafer measurement
3. This nal package part performance is veried by a functional test correlated to actual performance at one or more
frequencies.
4. Specications are derived from measurements in a 50 Ω test environment. Aspects of the amplier performance may
be improved over a more narrow bandwidth by application of additional conjugate, linearity, or low noise (Гopt)
matching.
