DESCRIPTION AND APPLICATIONS
The LPS200 is an Aluminum Gallium Arsenide / Indium Gallium Arsenide (AlGaAs/InGaAs)
Pseudomorphic High Electron Mobility Transistor (PHEMT), utilizing an Electron-Beam direct-
write 0.25
µ
m by 200
µ
m Schottky barrier gate. The recessed “mushroom” gate structure minimizes
parasitic gate-source and gate resistances. The epitaxial structure and processing have been
optimized for high dynamic range. The LPS200 also features Si
3
N
4
passivation and is available in
various packages.
Typical applications are as low noise devices for both narrowband and broadband amplifiers.
