ABA-52563-TR1 - Agilent / Hewlett-Packard

Agilent ABA-52563

3.5 GHz Broadband Silicon

RFIC Amplifier

Data Sheet

Description

Agilent’s ABA-52563 is an

economical, easy-to-use, inter-

nally 50-ohm matched silicon

monolithic amplifier that offers

excellent gain and flat broadband

response from DC to 3.5 GHz.

Packaged in an ultraminiature

industry-standard SOT-363

package, it requires half the board

space of a SOT-143 package.

At 2 GHz, the ABA-52563 offers a

small-signal gain of 21.5 dB,

output P1dB of 9.8 dBm and

19.9 dBm output third order

intercept point. It is suitable for

use as buffer amplifiers for

wideband applications. They are

designed for low cost gain blocks

in cellular applications, DBS

tuners, LNB and other wireless

communications systems.

ABA-52563 is fabricated using

Agilent’s HP25 silicon bipolar

process, which employs a double-

diffused single polysilicon

process with self-aligned submi-

cron emitter geometry. The

process is capable of simulta-

neous high fT and high NPN

breakdown (25 GHz fT at 6V

BVCEO). The process utilizes

industry standard device oxide

isolation technologies and

submicron aluminum multilayer

interconnect to achieve superior

performance, high uniformity,

and proven reliability.

Features

• Operating frequency: DC ~ 3.5 GHz

• 21.5 dB gain

• VSWR < 2.0 throughout operating

frequency

• 9.8 dBm output P1dB

• 3.3 dB noise figure

• Unconditionally stable

• Single 5V supply (Id = 35 mA)

Applications

• Amplifier for cellular, cordless,

special mobile radio, PCS, ISM,

wireless LAN, DBS, TVRO, and TV

tuner applications
