Ultra High Dynamic Range
Monolithic Amplifier
50Ω 0.05 to 6 GHz
The Big Deal
• High IP3
• Broadband High Dynamic Range
without external Matching Components
PGA-102+
SOT-89 PACKAGE
☛ LTE Performance
Product Overview
PGA-102+ (RoHS compliant) is an advanced wideband amplifier fabricated using E-PHEMT technology
and offers extremely high dynamic range over a broad frequency range and with low noise figure. In addi-
tion, the PGA-102+ has good input and output 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 perfor-
mance.
Key Features
Feature
Broad Band: 0.05 to 6.0 GHz
High IP3
Versus DC power Consumption:
33 dBm typical at 2 GHz at +3.3V
Supply Voltage and only 83mA
No External Matching Components
Required
Low Noise Figure:
2.3 dB up to 0.8 GHz
Advantages
Broadband covering primary wireless communications bands:
Cellular, PCS, LTE, WiMAX
The PGA-102+ provides good IP3 performance relative to device size and power con-
sumption. The combination of the design and E-PHEMT Structure provides enhanced
linearity over a broad frequency range as evidence in the IP3 being typically 15 dB above
the P 1dB point. This feature makes this amplifier ideal for use in:
• Driver amplifiers for complex waveform up converter paths
• Drivers in linearized transmit systems
• Secondary amplifiers in ultra High Dynamic range receivers
Unlike competing products, Mini-Circuits PGA-102+ provides Input and Output Return Loss
of 16-19 dB up to 4 GHz without the need for any external matching components
A unique feature of the PGA-102+ which separates this design from all competitors is the
low noise figure performance in combination with the high dynamic range.
