DESCRIPTION
The TriQuint TGA8300 - SCC is a GaAs monolithic distributed amplifier designed for use as a
multioctave general - purpose gain block. Four 189 - µm gate width FETs provide 7.5 dB nominal gain
-
and 5.5 - dB noise figur e from 2 to 18- GHz. Typical power output is 20 - dBm at 1- dB gain compression.
Typical input and output SWRs ar e 1.5:1. Ground is provided to the circuitry through vias to the
backside metallization.
The TGA8300 - SCC is supplied in chip for m and is engineered for high - volume automated assembly .
All metal sur faces are gold plated to be compatible with ther mocompression and thermosonic
wire- bonding processes.
