General Description
The CMM1631-SM is a four stage pHEMT GaAs MMIC power amplifier packaged in a 6x6 mm surface mount package. The CMM1631-SM provides 26 dB of linear gain and delivers 1.5 watts of output power at saturation operating between 16 to 18 GHz. The unconditional stability and internal matching provides for a reduction in external components making this product a simple and low cost solution. The true surface mount package makes it an ideal solution in all manufacturing environments. The power amplifier is intended for use in the extended Ku-Band satellite applications.
