General Description
The XP1042-BD is a linear driver amplifier that operates
over the 12.0-16.0 GHz frequency band. The device
provides 21 dB gain and 38 dBm Output Third Order
Intercept Point (OIP3) across the band. The driver
amplifier includes on-chip ESD protection structures
and DC by-pass capacitors to ease the implementation
and volume assembly of the part. The device is
manufactured in a high linearity GaAs PHEMT device
technology with BCB wafer coating to enhance
ruggedness and repeatability of performance.The
XP1042-BD is well suited for Point-to-Point Radio,
LMDS, SATCOM and VSAT applications.
