The MAAP-000077-PKG001 is a 2-stage GaN power amplifier with a saturated output power level of 13W and variable drain voltage (6-10V) operation. It features the MSAG™ process and is suitable for a wide range of applications such as radio communications, test equipment, and radar.
The MAAP-000077-PKG001 is a two‑stage 13 W power amplifier built in a 10‑lead flange‑mount ceramic package. It is fully matched to 50 Ω on both input and output, eliminating the need for external DC blocking capacitors. The device uses M/A‑COM’s MSAG™ GaAs process and is tested on wafer for performance compliance.
The datasheet provides electrical characteristics, maximum ratings, recommended operating conditions, handling precautions for static‑sensitive devices, and assembly instructions including bias configuration and package mounting guidelines. An evaluation board layout and package dimensions are also included for system designers.
