AG403-86 InGaP HBT Gain Block Product Features Product Description Functional Diagram GND The AG403-86 is a general-purpose buffer amplifier that DC 6000 MHz 4 offers high dynamic range in a low-cost surface-mount 20.5 dB Gain 900 MHz package. At 900 MHz, the AG403-86 typically provides +18 dBm P1dB 900 MHz 20.5 dB gain, +31.5 dBm OIP3, and +18 dBm P1dB. The device combines dependable performance with consistent 1 3 +31.5 dBm OIP3 900 MHz RF In RF Out quality to maintain MTTF values exceeding 1000 years at Single Voltage Supply mounting temperatures of +85 C and is housed in a lead- Internally matched to 50 free/green/RoHS-compliant SOT-86 (micro-X) industry- 2 standard SMT package. Robust 1000V ESD, Class 1C GND Lead-free/green/RoHS-compliant The AG403-86 consists of a Darlington-pair amplifier SOT-86 package Function Pin No. using the high reliability InGaP/GaAs HBT process Input 1 technology and only requires DC-blocking capacitors, a Output/Bias 3 bias resistor, and an inductive RF choke for operation. Ground 2, 4 Applications The broadband MMIC amplifier can be directly applied to various current and next generation wireless technologies Mobile Infrastructure such as GPRS, GSM, CDMA, and W-CDMA. In addition, CATV / FTTX the AG403-86 will work for other various applications WLAN / ISM within the DC to 6 GHz frequency range such as CATV and WiMAX.
