High Dynamic Range Gain Block AG103 The Communications Edge TM Product Information Product Features x x x x x x x x 50 – 870 MHz 13 dB Gain 3 dB Noise Figure >+36 dBm OIP3 +20 dBm P1dB Single +5 Bias Supply Internally matched to 50 : Lead-free/Green/RoHScompliant SOT-89 Package x MTTF > 1000 years Product Description The AG103 is a general-purpose gain block that offers good dynamic range and low noise figure in a low-cost surfacemount package. The combination of high OIP3 and tight gain variation window makes it attractive for a multitude of applications. The device combines dependable performance with superb quality to maintain MTTF values exceeding 1000 years at mounting temperatures of +85 qC and is available in the environmentally-friendly lead-free/green /RoHS-compliant SOT-89 package. All devices are 100% RF & DC tested. The AG103 uses a high reliability GaAs MMIC technology and only requires DC-blocking and bypass capacitors, and an inductive RF choke for operation. Internal matching provides a 50 ohm input / output impedance minimizing the number of required external components. The AG103 GaAs MMIC amplifier is well suited for wireless infrastructure such as NMT-450, homeland security, and 2nd generation mobile infrastructure utilizing the cellular band. In addition, the amplifier can be used for applications in various IF frequency bands.
