1 GHz 18 dB gain wideband amplifier MMIC
Rev. 3 — 26 September 2013
Product data sheet
1. Product profile
1.1 General description
The BGA3018 MMIC is a wideband amplifier with internal biasing. It is designed
specifically for high linearity CATV line extenders and drop amplifiers over a frequency
range of 5 MHz to 1006 MHz. The LNA is housed in a lead free 3-pin SOT89 package.
1.2 Features and benefits
Internally biased
Flat gain
High linearity with an IP3O of 40 dBm and
an IP2O of 60 dBm
Noise figure of 2.1 dB
75 input and output impedance
Operating from 5 V to 8 V supply
1.3 Applications
General wideband amplifiers.
CATV return amplifier; frequency ranges of 5 MHz to 300 MHz.
CATV infrastructure network driver in optical nodes (FTTx), distribution amplifiers,
trunk amplifiers and line extenders in the frequency range from 40 MHz to 1006 MHz.
The product is ideally suited for applications as drop amplifiers in CATV distribution
systems such as FTTH

Product data sheet
Suitability for use — NXP Semiconductors products are not designed,
authorized or warranted to be suitable for use in life support, life-critical or
safety-critical systems or equipment, nor in applications where failure or
malfunction of an NXP Semiconductors product can reasonably be expected
to result in personal injury, death or severe property or environmental
damage. NXP Semiconductors and its suppliers accept no liability for
inclusion and/or use of NXP Semiconductors products in such equipment or
applications and therefore such inclusion and/or use is at the customer’s own
risk.
Applications — Applications that are described herein for any of these
products are for illustrative purposes only. NXP Semiconductors makes no
representation or warranty that such applications will be suitable for the
specified use without further testing or modification.
Customers are responsible for the design and operation of their applications
and products using NXP Semiconductors products, and NXP Semiconductors
accepts no liability for any assistance with applications or customer product
design. It is customer’s sole responsibility to determine whether the NXP
Semiconductors product is suitable and fit for the customer’s applications and
products planned, as well as for the planned application and use of
customer’s third party customer(s). Customers should provide appropriate
design and operating safeguards to minimize the risks associated with their
applications and products.
NXP Semiconductors does not accept any liability related to any default,
damage, costs or problem which is based on any weakness or default in the
customer’s applications or products, or the application or use by customer’s
third party customer(s). Customer is responsible for doing all necessary
testing for the customer’s applications and products using NXP
Semiconductors products in order to avoid a default of the applications and
the products or of the application or use by customer’s third party
customer(s). NXP does not accept any liability in this respect.
Limiting values — Stress above one or more limiting values (as defined in
the Absolute Maximum Ratings System of IEC 60134) will cause permanent
damage to the device. Limiting values are stress ratings only and (proper)
operation of the device at these or any other conditions above those given in
the Recommended operating conditions section (if present) or the
Characteristics sections of this document is not warranted. Constant or
repeated exposure to limiting values will permanently and irreversibly affect
the quality and reliability of the device.
Terms and conditions of commercial sale — NXP Semiconductors
products are sold subject to the general terms and conditions of commercial
sale, as published at http://www.nxp.com/profile/terms, unless otherwise
