General Description
Mimix Broadband's 2.5-6.0/5.0-12.0 GHz GaAs MMIC
Active Doubler delivers + 16 dBm of output power.
The circuit combines an active doubler with an
output buffer amplifier that delivers constant power
over a range of input powers. The circuit has excellent
rejection of the fundamental and harmonic products
and requires a single positive bias supply. This MMIC
uses Mimix Broadband's 2 um GaAs HBT device model
technology to ensure high reliability and uniformity.
The chip has surface passivation to protect and
provide a rugged part with backside via holes and
gold metallization to allow either a conductive epoxy
or eutectic solder die attach process. This device is
well suited for Millimeter-wave Point-to-Point Radio,
LMDS, SATCOM and VSAT applications.
