MAX2612 –MAX2616
40MHz to 4GHz Linear Broadband Amplifiers
General Description
The MAX2612–MAX2616 is a family of high-performance
broadband gain blocks designed for use as a PA predriv-
er, low-noise amplifier, or as a cascadable 50I amplifier
with up to +19.5dBm output power. These devices are
suited for many applications that include cellular infra-
structure, private or commercial microwave radios, and
CATV or cable modems. The operating frequency range
extends from 40MHz to 4000MHz. The amplifier operates
on a +3V to a +5.25V supply with input and output ports
internally matched to 50I. The device family is available
in a pin-to-pin compatible, compact 2mm x 3mm TDFN
lead-free package.
