• Ultra High IP3
• Broadband High Dynamic Range
• May be used as a replacement for RFMD SPF-5189Za,b
PGA-103+
SOT-89 PACKAGE
Product Overview
PGA-103+ (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-103+ 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 4.0 GHz
Ultra High IP3
Versus DC power Consumption:
45 dBm typical at 2 GHz at +5.0V
Supply Voltage and only 97mA
Advantages
Broadband covering primary wireless communications bands:
Cellular, PCS, LTE, WiMAX
The PGA-103+ provides excellent IP3 performance relative to device size and power
consumption. The combination of the design and E-PHEMT Structure provides en-
hanced linearity over a broad frequency range as evidence in the IP3 being typically 20
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
Low Noise Figure:
0.6 dB up to 1.0 GHz
A unique feature of the PGA-103+ which separates this design from all competitors is the
low noise figure performance in combination with the high dynamic range.
Notes:
a. Suitability for model replacement within a particular system must be determined by and is solely the responsibility of the customer based on, among other things, electrical
performance criteria, stimulus conditions, application, compatibility with other components and environmental conditions and stresses.
b. The RFMD SPF-5189Z part number is used for identification and comparison purposes only.
