Description
M/A-COM’s MAAM-008820 CATV 4-way active
splitter is a GaAs MMIC which exhibits low noise
figure and distortion in a lead-free 3 mm 12-lead
PQFN plastic package. The design features 75
Ω
inputs and outputs.
The MAAM-008820 is ideally suited for multi-tuner
set top boxes, home gateways, and other broadband
internet based appliances.
The MAAM-008820 is fabricated using M/A-COM’s
PHEMT process to realize low noise and low
distortion. The process features full passivation for
robust performance and reliability.

Static Sensitivity
Gallium Arsenide Integrated Circuits are sensitive
to electrostatic discharge (ESD) and can be
damaged by static electricity. Proper ESD control
techniques should be used when handling these
devices.
