RF2360

RF2360 0 Typical Applications • CATV Distribution Amplifiers • Cable Modems • Broadband Gain Blocks Product Description The RF2360 is a general purpose, low-cost, high-linearity RF amplifier IC. The device is manufactured on a Gallium Arsenide process and is featured in an SOP-16 batwing package. It has been designed for use as an easily cascadable 75 Ω gain block with a Noise Figure of less than 2dB. Gain flatness better than 0.5dB from 5MHz to 1000MHz, and high linearity make this part ideal for cable TV applications. Other applications include IF and RF amplification in wireless voice and data communication products operating in frequency bands up to 1000MHz. The device is self-contained with 75 Ω input and output impedances providing less than 2:1 VSWR matching. For higher input and output return losses, see the evaluation schematic. -A0.158 0.150 0.021 0.014 0.009 0.004 LINEAR GENERAL PURPOSE AMPLIFIER RoHS Compliant & Pb-Free Product • Laser Diode Driver • Return Channel Amplifier • Base Stations 0.392 0.386 0.069 0.064 0.050 0.244 0.230 8° MAX 0° MIN 0.010 0.008 0.060 0.054 0.035 0.016 Optimum Technology Matching® Applied Si BJT Si Bi-CMOS InGaP/HBT GaAs HBT SiGe HBT GaN HEMT GaAs MESFET Si CMOS SiGe Bi-CMOS Package Style: Standard Batwing Features • 5MHz to 1500MHz Operation • Internally Matched Input and Output • 20dB Small Signal Gain • 1.2dB Noise Figure • +24dBm Output Power • Single 6V to 9V Positive Power Supply NC 1 NC 2 GND 3 GND 4 GND 5 RF IN 6 NC 7 NC 8 16 NC 15 NC 14 RF OUT 13 GND 12 GND 11 NC 10 NC 9 NC Ordering Information RF2360 RF2360 PCBA RF2360 411 RF2360 412 Linear General Purpose Amplifier Fully Assembled Evaluation Board 50 Ω Fully Assembled Evaluation Board 75H Fully Assembled Evaluation Board 75L Tel (336) 664 1233 Fax (336) 664 0454 http://www.rfmd.com Functional Block Diagram RF Micro Devices, Inc. 7628 Thorndike Road Greensboro, NC 27409, USA Rev A11 060515 3-43 RF2360 Absolute Maximum Ratings Parameter Device Current Device Voltage Input RF Power Output Load VSWR Ambient Operating Temperature Storage Temperature Rating 175 9 +13 20:1 -40 to +85 -40 to +150 Unit mA V dBm °C °C Caution!
