Product Information
Product Description
The AH116 / ECP052 is a high dynamic range driver amplifier in a low-cost surface mount package. The InGaP/GaAs HBT is able to achieve high performance for various narrow-band tuned application circuits with up to +43 dBm OIP3 and +28 dBm of compressed 1-dB power and is housed in a lead-free/green/RoHS-compliant SOIC-8 package. All devices are 100% RF and DC tested.

The product is targeted for use as driver amplifiers for • Lead-free/green/RoHS-compliant wireless infrastructure where high linearity and medium power is required. The internal active bias allows the SOIC-8 SMT Pkg. AH116 / ECP052 to maintain high linearity over temperature and operate directly off a +5 V supply. This Applications combination makes the device an excellent fit for transceiver line cards and power amplifiers in current and • Mobile Infrastructure next generation multi-carrier 3G base stations.

Test conditions unless otherwise noted. 1. T = 25ºC, Vsupply = +5 V, Frequency = 900 MHz, in tuned application circuit. 2. 3OIP measured with two tones at an output power of +13 dBm/tone separated by 1 MHz. The suppression on the largest IM3 product is used to calculate the 3OIP using a 2:1 rule. 3. This corresponds to the quiescent current or operating current under small-signal conditions. It is expected that the current can increase up to 300mA at P1dB.

Notes: The gain for the unmatched device in 50 ohm system is shown as the trace in black color. For a tuned circuit for a particular frequency, it is expected that actual gain will be higher, up to the maximum stable gain. The maximum stable gain is shown in the dashed red line. The return loss plots are shown from 50 – 5050 MHz, with markers placed at 0.5 – 5.05 GHz in 0.5 GHz increments.
