Description

M/A-COM’s MAAL-007304 low noise amplifier is a

GaAs MMIC amplifier in a lead-free SOT-26 surface

mount plastic package. The MAAL-007304 employs

a monolithic 2-stage self-biased design and typically

runs from a single 3.0 volt supply.

Any voltage

between 3.0 and 5.0 volts can be used, depending

on system requirements. The MAAL-007304 offers

low noise, low current, and high gain. It can be

tuned for various applications from 0.5 to 3 GHz.

M/A-COM fabricates the MAAL-007304 using a

low noise PHEMT process to realize low noise and

high gain. The process features full passivation for

performance and reliability.
