This design operates on a single +5V supply and is internally matched to 50 Ohms. KEY FEATURES Feature Advantages High Gain: 30 dB Incorporating multiple stages of amplification, the PMA-545G2+ provides high gain reducing cost and PCB board space. Ultra Low Noise: 1.0 dB NF at 1.4 GHz Excellent Noise Figure, measured in a 50 Ohm environment – without any external matching. When combined with high gain of this design, it suppresses second stage NF contribution. High IP3: +34 dBm IP3 at 1.4 GHz Combining Low Noise and High IP3 makes this MMIC amplifier ideal for Low Noise Receiver Front End (RFE) giving the user advantages at both ends of the dynamic range: sensitivity & two-tone IM dynamic range Output Power: +22 dBm at 1.4 GHz The PMA-545G2+ maintains consistent output power capability over the full operating temperature range making it ideal to be used in remote applications such as LNB’s as the L Band driver stage Broad Band: 1.2 to 1.6 GHz Covering GPS, INMARSAT, Radar Internally Matched No external matching elements required to achieve the advertized noise and output power over the full band MCLP Package Low Inductance, repeatable transitions, excellent thermal pad Max Input Power +25dBm Ruggedized design operates up to input powers often seen at Receiver inputs. Eliminating need for an external limiter. High Reliability Low, small signal operating current of 160 mA nominal maintains junction temperatures typically below 130°C at 85°C ground lead temperature *Enhancement mode Pseudomorphic High Electron Mobility Transistor. www.minicircuits.com P.O.
