Description
The ACA1212 is a highly linear, high output power integrated RF
amplifier designed for CATV head ends and HFC distribution
systems. The IC consists of two parallel amplifiers cascaded
between transmission line baluns that are optimized for
exceptionally low distortion, high output power, and high crash
point in a thermally enhanced surface-mount package. The
ACA1212 covers the full 50 to 1218 MHz CATV downstream band
demanded by DOCSIS 3.1 systems.
A block diagram of the ACA1212 is shown in Figure 1. The device
package and pinout are shown in Figure 2. Signal pin
assignments and functional pin descriptions are described in
Table 1.
