PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The ACA2404 is a highly linear, high output power,
monolithic GaAs RF amplifier that has been
developed to replace standard CATV hybrid
amplifiers, in new designs. Offered in a convenient
surface mount package, the MMIC consists of two
pairs of parallel amplifiers that are optimized for
exceptionally low distortion and noise figure. A hybrid
equivalent that provides flat gain response and
excellent input and output return loss over the 40 to
870 MHz CATV downstream band is formed when
one ACA2404 is cascaded between two appropriate
transmission line baluns.
