DESCRIPTION
The TC1900 is a broadband general-purpose medium power MMIC amplifier that operates in the 30 KHz to
12 GHz frequency range. The amplifier provides a minimum 7 dB of gain and delivers 17 dBm of output
power. The MMIC is fabricated using a mature GaAs PHEMT process. The process features all passivation
for increased performance and reliability. All devices are 100% DC tested to assure consistent quality. Bond
pads are gold plated for either thermocompression or thermosonic wire bonding. Backside gold plating is
compatible with standard AuSn die-attach.
