MMA-212734D-M5

RF Amplifiers Overview

The MMA-212734D-M5 is a GaAs MMIC linear power amplifier designed for the 21 to 27 GHz frequency range. It delivers 3 Watts (34 dBm) of output power with a gain of 25 dB. The device operates at a supply voltage of 6 V and draws an operating supply current of 2 A. Packaged in a 32-QFN (5x5 mm) surface-mount package, it is suitable for high-frequency RF applications requiring robust power output.

RF Amplifiers Feature Summary

• Linear power amplification using GaAs MMIC technology
• High output power capability of 3 Watts across the full band
• Consistent 25 dB gain performance from 21 to 27 GHz
• Compact 32-QFN surface-mount packaging for integration

RF Amplifiers Applications

• Point-to-point microwave radio links
• Satellite communication ground stations
• Test and measurement equipment
• Military radar systems

RF Amplifiers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'M5' to ensure the correct QFN 5x5 package variant is ordered. Confirm that the application circuit supports the required 6 V supply voltage and 2 A current draw. Ensure PCB layout adheres to thermal requirements for GaAs MMICs in QFN packages to maintain performance and reliability during operation.

RF Amplifiers Selection Notes

Select this component when a wide bandwidth covering 21 to 27 GHz is required alongside significant linear power output. The 25 dB gain reduces the need for additional pre-amplification stages. Consider the 32-QFN footprint for space-constrained designs where SMD mounting is preferred over leaded packages.

RF Amplifiers Part Context

This part belongs to CML Micro's portfolio of GaAs MMIC power amplifiers. It is distinct from evaluation boards like the MGA-445343-99EV, which are tools for testing components rather than active devices themselves. The MMA series targets high-frequency wireless infrastructure needs.

RF Amplifiers Replacement Considerations

No public confirmed substitute part numbers are available in the provided documentation. Engineers must evaluate pin-compatible alternatives based on matching frequency ranges, output power levels, and package dimensions if sourcing becomes unavailable.
