RF2043

RF2043 4 Typical Applications • Broadband, Low Noise Gain Blocks • IF or RF Buffer Amplifiers • Driver Stage for Power Amplifiers • Final PA for Low Power Applications • High Reliability Applications • Broadband Test Equipment GENERAL PURPOSE AMPLIFIER Product Description The RF2043 is a general purpose, low cost RF amplifier IC. The device is manufactured on an advanced Gallium Arsenide Heterojunction Bipolar Transistor (HBT) process, and has been designed for use as an easily-cascadable 50 Ω gain block. Applications include IF and RF amplification in wireless voice and data communication products operating in frequency bands up to 6000MHz. The device is self-contained with 50 Ω input and output impedances and requires only two external DC biasing elements to operate as specified. With a goal of enhanced reliability, the extremely small Micro-X ceramic package offers significantly lower thermal resistance than similar size plastic packages. 45° + 1° 4 0.055 + 0.005 0.020 + 0.002 0.040 + 0.002 0.070 sq.
