EV90A009 Evaluation Board

CML Micro EV90A009 evaluation board measures 41 mm x 41 mm and is designed for the CMX90A009 amplifier, tuned for 400 MHz to 470 MHz. The CMX90A009 is a high-efficiency two-stage GaAs HBT driver amplifier in a thermally enhanced plastic DFN package, delivering 40.0 dBm (10 W) of output power with >60% efficiency at 435 MHz and 7.4 V.

CMX90A009 requires external matching at both input and output to optimize performance for each application and frequency band. A wide supply voltage range of 6 V to 9.5 V makes it suitable for a variety of applications. It enables direct connection to dual-cell lithium batteries, and on-chip active bias maintains operation over temperature. CMX90A009 is intended as the output stage in a high-power amplifier; combined with the CMX90A007 driver, it provides a complete line-up solution.
