Frequently Asked Questions
Does the BGA6589 require external matching circuits?
No, the device is internally matched to 50 Ω and therefore does not require any external matching.
What precautions should I take when implementing the circuit board design?
When using via holes, utilize multiple vias per pin to effectively limit ground path induction. Also, place external components as close as possible to the MMIC.
What is the typical output power gain at 1.95 GHz?
The P load power at 1 dB compression at 1.95 GHz is typically listed as 20 dBm.
How is the amplifier supplied for current stability?
Resistor R1 acts as a bias resistor, providing DC current stability in the circuit.
