Uncondtionally Stable
Low-Cost, Surface Mount Package
Optimum Thermal Dissipation
Applications
Ku-Band VSAT Transmit Subsystems
General Description
The CMM1434-SM is a four-stage pHEMT GaAs MMIC power amplifier that is ideally suited for transmit subsystems
designed for Ku-Band VSAT applications. The CMM1434-SM provides 31.0 dB linear gain and delivers 2.5 watts of output
power at saturation operating from 13.50 to 14.50 GHz frequency.
The unconditional stability and internal matching provides for reduction of external components making this product a
simple and low-cost solution. The low-cost 6mm x 6mm x 1.6mm surface mount package offers the same excellent RF
and thermal properties as a typical flange package.
