AGR09030GUM
30 W, 865 MHz—895 MHz, N-Channel E-Mode, Lateral MOSFET
Introduction
The AGR09030GUM is a high-voltage, gold-metal-
ized, laterally diffused metal oxide semiconductor
(LDMOS) RF power transistor suitable for cellular
band, code-division multiple access (CDMA), global
system for mobile communication (GSM), enhanced
data for global evolution (EDGE), and time-division
multiple access (TDMA) single and multicarrier class
AB wireless base station amplifier applications. This
device is manufactured on an advanced LDMOS
technology, offering state-of-the-art performance and
reliability. Available in a plastic overmold package
capable of delivering a minimum output power of
30 W, it is ideally suited for today's RF power ampli-
fier applications.

— Adjacent ch annel power ratio (ACPR) for
30 kHz bandwidth (BW):
750 kHz offset: –47 dBc.
1.98 MHz offset: –62 dBc.
— Input return loss: –15 dB.
High-reliability, gold-metalization process.
High gain, efficiency, and linearity.
Integrated ESD protection.
Si LDMOS.
Industry-standard packages.
40 W typical output power.
Table 1. Thermal Characteristics
Table 2. Absolute Maximum Ratings*
* St ress es in excess of the absolute maxim um ratings ca n cause
permanent damage to the device. These are absolute stress rat-
ings only. Functional operation of the device is not implied at
these or any other conditions in excess of those given in the
operational sections of the data sheet. Exposure to absolute
maximum ratings for extended periods can adversely affect
device reliability.
Tab le 3. ESD Rating*
* Although electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection circuitry has
been designed into this device, proper precautions must be
taken to avoid exposure to ESD and electrical overstress (EOS)
during all handling, assembly, and test operations. Agere
employs a human-body model (HBM), a machine model (MM),
and a charged-device model (CDM) qualification requirement in
order to determine ESD-susceptibility limits and protection
design evaluation. ESD voltage thresholds are dependent on the
circuit parameters used in each of the models, as defined by
JEDEC's JESD22- A114B (HBM), JES D22-A115A (MM), and
JESD22-C101A (CDM ) standards.
Caution: MOS devices are susceptible to damage from elec-
trostatic charge. Reasonable precautions in han-
dling and packaging MOS devices should be
observed.
