PRODUCT OVERVIEW
The PMA3-83MP+ is a GaAs PHEMT based wideband, low noise MMIC amplifier with a unique combination of low noise,
high IP3, and high output power, over a wideband making it ideal for sensitive, high-dynamic range receiver applications. This
design operates on a single supply of 8V, is well matched for 50Ω and comes in a tiny, low profile package (3 x 3 mm-12 lead),
accommodating dense circuit board layouts.

Feature
Advantages
Low noise, 3dB Typical up to 8 GHz
Enables lower system noise figure performance.
High IP3
•
+39.5 dBm at 0.4 GHz
•
+37.9 dBm at 2 GHz
•
+39.0 dBm at 4 GHz
•
+38.6 dBm at 8 GHz
Combination of low noise and high IP3 makes this MMIC amplifier ideal for use in low noise receiver front end (RFE)
as it gives the user advantages of sensitivity and two-tone IM performance at both ends of the dynamic range.
VDD Operates over 5V to 8V
Allows the designer to tailor Pout and OIP3 via DC input for easier integration.
Tiny footprint saves space in dense layouts while providing low inductance, repeatable transitions, and excellent
thermal contact to the PCB.
3 x 3mm 12-lead MCLP package
Wide bandwidth with flat gain
Enables a single amplifier to be used in many wideband applications including defense, instrumentation and
more.
