| Mimix Broadband, Inc. Introduces Linear, Packaged Power Amplifier
Delivering +38 dBm OIP3
Versatile Device with On-Chip Power Detector Covers 37 to 40 GHz for
Point-to-Point Applications
 October 26, 2009, Houston, Texas - Mimix Broadband, Inc. introduces
today a linear power amplifier (PA) with an integrated, temperature
compensated, on-chip power detector, which is offered in an RoHS
compliant 7x7mm QFN-style package, making the device easy to install and
handle in volume applications. This power amplifier, identified as
XP1080-QU, covers 37 to 40 GHz and delivers +27 dBm P1dB compression
point and +38 dBm OIP3. The XP1080-QU has 25 dB small signal gain and is
ideal for wireless communications applications such as point-to-point
(PTP) microwave radio.
"The XP1080-QU delivers exceptional OIP3 performance in the 38 GHz PTP
radio band," stated David Richardson, Product Line Director, Mimix
Broadband, Inc. "It completes the 38 GHz up-converter/driver
amplifier/power amplifier Mimix SmartSet solution, all in surface mount
technology (SMT) packages. The complete chipset allows radio designers
to implement a high performance, low cost 38 GHz transmit stage, which
can be fully assembled in standard SMT assembly lines."
Mimix performs 100% RF testing on the XP1080-QU. Production quantities
will be available in 8-10 weeks. Technical support is also available
from Mimix's applications engineers at 281.988.4600. The datasheet and
additional product information can be obtained from the Mimix Broadband
website at www.mimixbroadband.com .
