Description
The Filtronic LMA116 is a GaAs monolithic distributive amplifier which operates from 2 to 10GHz. This amplifier is self biased and four
450µm FETs are used to produce a typical gain of 15dB and a noise figure of 4.5dB. The LMA116 is suitable for gain block, low noise and
driver amplifier applications. DC decoupled output RF port. Ground is provided to the circuitry through vias to the backside metallization.
