Input and output tuned Gamma location for 1900MHz(1) , 2500MHz(2) MGA-31289 is an input and output prematched driver amplifier. To bias MGA-31289, a +5V supply (Vdd) is connected to the output pin through a RF choke, L1 (which isolates the inband signal from the DC supply). The bypass capacitors (C1, C2 and C3) help to eliminate out of band low frequency signals from the power supply. Blocking capacitors are required for its input (C7) and output (C8), to isolate the supply voltage from preceding and succeeding circuits. C7 also plays a part in input tuning to improve input return loss while L1 and C8 help in output matching. The recommended output tuning is for achieving best OIP3, while meeting typical specifications for other parameters. 8 MGA-31289 Typical Scatter Parameters (1) TA = 25°C, Vd = 5.0V, Id = 124mA, Zo = 50W Freq GHz S11 S12 S12 S12 S22 S22 S22 Mag.
