The CMD233 is a wideband GaAs MMIC low

noise amplifier ideally suited for military,

space and communications systems where

small size and low noise figure are needed over

a wide bandwidth. At 10 GHz the device deliv-

ers greater than 9 dB of gain with a corre-

sponding noise figure of 4.5 dB and an output 1

dB compression point of +20.5 dBm.

The

CMD233 is a 50 ohm matched design which

eliminates the need for external DC blocks and

RF port matching. The CMD233 offers full

passivation for increased reliability and mois-

ture protection.

► Wide bandwidth

► Single positive supply voltage

► Low noise figure

► Small die size

► CMM4000 replacement
