THS9000

(1) The absolute maximum ratings under any condition is limited by the constraints of the silicon process. Stresses above these ratings may cause permanent damage. Exposure to absolute maximum conditions for extended periods may degrade device reliability. These are stress ratings only, and functional operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those specified is not implied.
(2) The maximum junction temperature for continuous operation is limited by package constraints. Operation above this temperature may result in reduced reliability and/or lifetime of the device.

The THS9000 is a medium power, cascadeable, gain block optimized for high IF frequencies. The amplifier incorporates internal impedance matching to 50 . The part mounted on the standard EVM achieves greater than 15-dB input and output return loss from 50 MHz to 325 MHz with V_S = 5 V, R_(BIAS) = 237 , L_(COL) = 470 nH. THS9000 is designed requires only 2 dc-blocking capacitors, 1 power-supply bypass capacitor, 1 RF choke, and 1 bias resistor.
