  6. Custom MMIC Unveils Three New LNA MMICs At IMS 2012 6/20/2012

    In IMS booth #3210, Custom MMIC, a developer of performance driven monolithic microwave integrated circuits (MMICs), is introducing three new devices from its growing MMIC IP/design library. CMD162 is a GaAs MMIC low-noise amplifier (LNA) chip for applications from 26 to 34 GHz. Optimized for 30 GHz satellite communications, the CMD162 boasts a typical noise figure of 1.7 dB with a small-signal gain of 22 dB and an output 1 dB compression point of +7 dB. This amplifier delivers high performance with high efficiency, reducing typical industry DC power dissipation for a device in this frequency band from approximately 340 mW down to 50 mW.
