Wideband RF amplifiers

22 February 2017 Telecoms, Datacoms, Wireless, IoT

MACOM Technology Solutions has added two wideband amplifiers – the MAAM-011229, a low noise amplifier (LNA), and the MAAM-011206, a Darlington amplifier – to its growing portfolio of high-performance MMICs.

The new MAAM-011206 is a versatile, broadband Darlington amplifier operating from DC to 15 GHz. This device has a gain of 14 dB, return loss of >15 dB and output power drive of 20 dBm P1dB. Housed in a small, 1,5 x 1,2 mm plastic SMT package, it is compatible with standard pick-and-place assembly equipment. Functional operation is achieved with single bias from +3 V to +5 V and has the option for current adjustment with an external bias resistor. This device is well suited for test and measurement, land mobile radios, and wireless and satellite communications.

The MAAM-011229 is a 3-5 V broadband LNA covering the frequency of 0,05 to 4 GHz. This 50 Ω LNA provides flat gain and excellent return losses to 3,25 GHz and out to 4 GHz with a 1,2 dB rolloff while keeping noise figure below 2 dB. A simple matching and bias circuit, along with active bias, enables the 2 mm, 8-lead MAAM-011229 to be a multi-market amplifier for customers.
