NOTES:
1. Operating conditions that exceed the Absolute Maximum Ratings could result in permanent damage to the device.
2. Recommended Continuous Operating Limits should be observed for reliable device operation.
3. Power Dissipation defined as: P_T º (P_DC + P_IN) - P_OUT, where: P_DC = DC bias power, P_OUT = RF output power, and P_IN
= RF input power.
4. Power Dissipation to be de-rated as follows above 25:
              Absolute Maximum: P_T = 1.3W - (9mW/) x T_HS
              Recommended Continuous Operating: P_T = 1.1W - (9mW/) x T_HS
where T_HS = heatsink or ambient temperature.
5. Specifications subject to change without notice.


Description

`The LP6836P100 is a packaged Aluminum Gallium Arsenide / Indium Gallium Arsenide (AlGaAs/InGaAs) Pseudomorphic
High Electron Mobility Transistor (PHEMT), utilizing an Electron-Beam direct-write 0.25 mm by 360 mm Schottky barrier
gate. The recessed "mushroom" gate structure minimizes parasitic gate-source and gate resistances. The epitaxial
structure and processing have been optimized for reliable high-power applications. The LP6836 also features Si₃N₄
passivation and is available in die form, or P70 packages. Packages are color-coded by I_DSS range.

`Typical applications include commercial and military high-performance power amplifiers, including SATCOM uplink
transmitters, and medium-haul digital radio transmitters. The LP6836P100 may be procured in a variety of grades, depending upon specific user requirements. Standard lot screening is patterned after MIL-STD-19500, JANC grade. Space level screening to FSS JANS grade is also available.
