Description
Avago Technologies’ AMMC-5620 MMIC is a GaAs wide-
band amplifier designed for medium output power and
high gain over the 6 - 20 GHz frequency range. The 3
cascaded stages provide high gain while the single bias
supply offers ease of use. It is fabricated using a PHEMT
integrated circuit process. The RF input and output ports
have matching circuitry for use in 50-Ω environments.
The backside of the chip is both RF and DC ground. This
helps simplify the assembly process and reduces assembly
related performance variations and costs. For improved
reliability and moisture protection, the die is passivated
at the active areas. The MMIC is a cost effective alternative
to hybrid (discrete FET) amplifiers that require complex
tuning and assembly processes.

Note:
1. Operation in excess of any one of these conditions may result in permanent damage to this device.
Note: These devices are ESD sensitive. The following precautions are strongly recommended.
Ensure that an ESD approved carrier is used when dice are transported from one destination to
another. Personal grounding is to be worn at all times when handling these devices
