MGA-30789
2 - 6GHz
High Linearity Gain Block
Data Sheet
Description
Features
Avago Technologies’ MGA-30789 is a broadband, high
linearity gain block MMIC amplifier achieved through
the use of Avago Technologies’ proprietary 0.25um GaAs
Enhancement-mode pHEMT process.
• High linearity
The device required simple dc biasing components to
achieve wide bandwidth performance. The temperature
compensated internal bias circuit provides stable current
over temperature and process threshold voltage
variation.
The MGA-30789 is housed inside a low cost RoHS
compliant SOT89 industry standard SMT package (4.5 x
4.1 x 1.5 mm).
• Built in temperature compensated internal bias
circuitry
• No RF matching components required
• GaAs E-pHEMT Technology[1]
• Standard SOT89 package
• Single, Fixed 5V supply
• Excellent uniformity in product specifications
• MSL-2 and Lead-free halogen free
• High MTTF for base station application

Refer to Avago Application Note A004R:
Electrostatic Discharge, Damage and Control.
5GHz; 5V, 100mA (typical)
• 8.8 dB Gain
• 40 dBm Output IP3
• 2.7 dB Noise Figure
• 25.7 dBm Output Power at 1dB gain compression
Applications
• RF driver amplifier
• General purpose gain block
Note:
1. Enhancement mode technology employs positive gate voltage,
thereby eliminating the need of negative gate voltage associated
with conventional depletion mode devices.
