GVA-60 Datasheet, PDF (1/5 Pages) Mini-Circuits – Monolithic Amplifier

Flat Gain, High IP3
Monolithic Amplifier
50Ω 0.01 to 5 GHz
GVA-60+
The Big Deal
• Excellent Gain Flatness and Return Loss over 50-1000 MHz
• High IP3 vs. DC Power consumption
• Broadband High Dynamic Range without
external Matching Components
SOT-89 PACKAGE
Product Overview
GVA-60+ (RoHS compliant) is an wideband amplifier fabricated using HBT technology and offers ultra flat
gain over a broad frequency range and with high IP3. In addition, the GVA-60+, has good input and out-
put return loss over a broad frequency range without the need for external matching components and has
demonstrated excellent reliability. Lead finish is SnAgNi. It has repeatable performance from lot to lot and
is enclosed in a SOT-89 package for very good thermal performance.
Key Features
Feature
Broad Band: 0.01 to 5.0 GHz
Advantages
Broadband covering a broad range of IF frequencies and the primary wireless commu-
nications bands:
Cellular, PCS, LTE, WiMAX
High IP3 vs. DC power Consumption
40 dBm typical at 0.05 GHz
35 dBm typical at 0.85 GHz
The GVA-60+ matches industry leading IP3 performance relative to device size and
power consumption. The combination of the design and HBT Structure provides en-
hanced linearity over a broad frequency range as evidence in the IP3 being typically 16
dB above the P 1dB point to 0.85 GHz. This feature makes this amplifier ideal for use in:
• Driver amplifiers for complex waveform up converter paths
• Drivers in linearized transmit systems
Outstanding Input Return Loss up to 1
GHz: better than 20 dB.
No External Matching Components
Required
10-24 dB to 2 GHz
The GVA-60+ provides excellent input return loss: 20 dB up to 1 GHz and 16.8 dB up to 2
GHz making this amplifier an ideal IF gain block that can be embedded in RF chains that have
highly reflective components, and still maintain good system performance
GVA-60+ provides good Input and Output Return Loss without the need for any external
matching components
