Product Description

35

The TriQuint TGA4906-SM is a compact 4 Watt


High Power Amplifier for Ka-band applications.
The part is designed using TriQuints proven
standard 0.15 um gate Power pHEMT production
process. The TGA4906-SM provides a nominal 36
dBm of output power at an input power level of 14
dBm with a small signal gain of 23 dB.

Vg set to -1.5 V

Turn off RF supply

Vd_set to +6 V

Reduce Vg to -1.5V. Ensure Idq ~ 0 mA

Adjust Vg more positive until Idq is 1.6 A.


This will be ~ Vg = -0.75 V

Turn Vd to 0 V

Apply RF signal to input

Turn Vg to 0 V

Assembly Notes
Recommended Surface Mount Package Assembly
Proper ESD precautions must be followed while handling packages.
Clean the board with acetone. Rinse with alcohol. Allow the circuit to fully dry.
TriQuint recommends using a conductive solder paste for attachment. Follow solder paste and reflow
oven vendors recommendations when developing a solder reflow profile. Typical solder reflow profiles
are listed in the table below.
Hand soldering is not recommended. Solder paste can be applied using a stencil printer or dot
placement. The volume of solder paste depends on PCB and component layout and should be well
controlled to ensure consistent mechanical and electrical performance.
Clean the assembly with alcohol.
