Electrical Specications
1. Small/Large -signal data measured in a fully de-embedded test xture form TA = 25°C.
2. Pre-assembly into package performance veried 100% on-wafer per AMMC-6522 published specications.
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.
5. NF is measure on-wafer. Additional bond wires (-0.2nH) at Input could improve NF at some frequencies.
