Avago Technologies Introduces Pair of Low Cost VSAT Power Amplifiers in 5x5 Surface Mount Package

New Two and Four Watt Ka Band Amplifiers Provide High Dynamic Range and
Reliability in VSAT Ground Terminal Applications
BOSTON--(Business Wire)--
Avago Technologies, today announced a new pair of low cost surface mount (SMT)
2- and 4-Watt power amplifiers for use in Ka band VSAT ground terminal
applications. Avago`s AMMP-6413/6415, which provide high linearity, are fully
monolithic power amplifiers offered in a 5mm by 5 mm SMT package. Both of these
new amplifiers provide high efficiency to help reduce power consumption and the
need for heat dissipation. Moreover, these features make these new PAs from
Avago ideal for use as last stage power amplifiers in systems that require
increased linearity for high data rate transmission. Avago is a leading supplier
of analog interface components for communications, industrial and consumer
applications.

VSAT device designers are continually looking for low cost PAs that are highly
reliable, and offer a high dynamic range (better output power, gain, and
linearity) to fulfill the growing demand in the market for commercial and
enterprise internet over satellite applications. In addition, a growing number
of VSAT customers are moving towards surface mount technology in an effort to
reduce their assembly cost through automation. Avago`s AMMP-6413/6415 PAs were
developed to address this design need in the marketplace.

Avago`s 2-watt AMMP-6413 and 4-watt AMMP-6415 MMICs are designed for use in Ku
Band VSAT transmitters that operate at frequencies between 13.75GHz and 14.5GHz.
In the operational band these PAs provide 33 dBm and 36dBm of output power and
29dB of small-signal gain.

Key Features

* Low cost 5mm by 5 mm SMT package
* Frequency range: 13.75 to 14.5 GHz
* Output Power: two and four-watt options available
* High linearity, OIP3
* 50 ohm matched on input and output
* ESD protection (50V MM and 150V HBM)

Pricing and Availability

Avago`s AMMP-6413 and AMMP-6415 are available now with pricing starting from $20
and $25, respectively in 10,000 unit volumes. More information about Avago
