General Description

SAC3015 is a 2 to 8 GHz GaAs MMIC low noise amplifier die with 28.5 dB of gain, a 2.3 dB noise figure and 16.5 dBm output P1dB.

OIP3 is 27 dBm and gain is flat to ±1 dB. It takes 85 mA from +5 V, VSWR is 1.6:1, and the die is 1.4 x 1.25 x 0.1 mm with full passivation. High gain plus a fairly strong P1dB lets one die act as both LNA and gain block in radar, ECM and microwave radio receivers.
