The CMD292 from Custom MMIC is a GaAs MMIC distributed driver amplifier die that operates from DC to 30 GHz covering the L, S, C, X, Ku, K, Ka Bands. It delivers a gain of 13 dB with a saturated output power of 28.5 dBm and has a noise figure of 3 dB at 15 GHz. The amplifier requires a supply voltage of 8 to 11 V and consumes up to 250 mA of current. The amplifier is matched to 50 ohms which eliminates the need for external DC blocks and RF port matching. The CMD292 provides full passivation for increased reliability and moisture protection. It can be qualified for space applications if required.
