MGA-31589 0.5 W High Gain Driver Amplifier Data Sheet Description Features Avago Technologies’ MGA-31589 is a 0.5 W, high Gain, high performance Driver Amplifier MMIC, housed in a standard SOT-89 plastic package. The device required simple matching components to achieve optimum performance within specific 100 to 200 MHz bandwidth. • ROHS compliant MGA-31589 is especially ideal for wireless infrastructure applications that operate within the 450 MHz to 1.5 GHz frequency range. With high IP3 and low noise figure, the MGA-31589 may be utilized as a driver amplifier in the transmit chain and as second or third stage LNA in the receive chain. For optimum performance at higher frequency from 1.5 GHz to 3.0 GHz, MGA-31689 is recommended. • Low noise figure MGA-31589’s high gain and high linearity features are achieved through the use of Avago Technologies’ proprietary 0.25 mm GaAs Enhancement-mode pHEMT process.

For best performance, MGA-31589 requires only simple input and output matching network. The C3, C4, and L3 act as the output tuning circuitry for matching and OIP3 optimization. Bandpass network C1,C2, and L1 forms the input matching network. To bias MGA-31589, a +5 V supply (Vdd) is connected to the output pin thru a RF choke, L2 (which isolates the inband signal from the DC supply). The low frequency bypass capacitors C6 and C7 help to eliminate low frequency signals from power supply. Blocking capacitors are required for its input (C8) and output (C9), to isolate the supply voltage from succeeding circuits. The recommended output tuning is for achieving wideband best OIP3, while meeting typical specifications for other parameters. 8 MGA31589 Typical Scattering Parameter [1] TA = 25° C, Vdd = 5.0 V, Idd = 146 mA, Zo = 50 Ω Freq (GHz) S11 (dB) S11 (ang) S21 (dB) S21 (ang) S12 (dB) S12 (ang) S22 (dB) S22 (ang) k 0.1 0.2 0.3 0.4 0.5 0.6 0.7 0.8 0.9 1.0 1.5 2.0 2.5 3.0 3.5 4.0 4.5 5.0 5.5 6.0 6.5 7.0 7.5 8.0 8.5 9.0 9.5 10.0 10.5 11.0 11.5 12.0 12.5 13.0 13.5 14.0 14.5 15.0 15.5 16.0 16.5 17.0 17.5 18.0 18.5 19.0 19.5 20.0 -1.77 -1.67 -1.72 -1.77 -1.83 -1.87 -1.90 -1.94 -1.98 -2.05 -2.30 -2.58 -2.97 -3.38 -3.66 -3.67 -3.35 -2.72 -2.25 -1.90 -1.66 -1.49 -1.37 -1.31 -1.24 -1.15 -1.04 -0.93 -0.88 -0.87 -0.87 -0.89 -0.90 -0.90 -0.79 -0.66 -0.64 -0.66 -0.71 -0.79 -0.85 -0.94 -1.05 -1.18 -1.35 -1.50 -1.72 -1.98 -176.55 177.54 173.67 170.76 168.30 165.91 163.53 161.13 158.73 155.91 143.20 131.24 119.80 109.13 99.38 89.65 78.37 69.55 54.25 37.98 22.07 6.75 -8.46 -23.53 -38.62 -52.86 -65.05 -74.79 -83.14 -91.24 -99.83 -108.98 -118.43 -127.25 -134.85 -142.23 -149.26 -156.32 -163.50 -170.94 -178.86 171.97 162.04 151.96 142.56 134.05 127.31 122.16 19.58 16.85 16.41 16.37 16.34 16.23 16.08 15.93 15.76 15.71 15.13 14.79 14.64 14.52 14.28 13.76 12.79 11.22 9.39 7.35 5.23 3.14 1.07 -1.12 -3.42 -5.90 -8.51 -11.10 -13.57 -15.94 -18.27 -20.69 -23.36 -26.67 -31.56 -37.35 -47.45 -48.66 -40.13 -35.71 -32.13 -29.15 -26.61 -24.66 -23.66 -23.71 -23.25 -24.07 136.19 145.31 149.08 147.43 143.00 138.05 133.00 127.98 123.03 117.78 94.05 71.01 46.54 20.10 -8.36 -38.65 -70.05 -99.35 -127.96 -154.25 -178.40 158.99 137.02 115.64 94.86 75.16 57.37 41.67 27.46 14.15 1.08 -12.23 -26.45 -42.33 -55.65 -61.23 -58.90 73.73 79.58 75.52 66.97 54.52 39.34 20.98 1.12 -15.16 -26.68 -36.24 -34.90 -35.04 -34.65 -34.05 -33.53 -33.16 -32.88 -32.61 -32.38 -32.03 -30.80 -29.78 -29.03 -28.80 -29.30 -30.76 -33.36 -35.92 -35.02 -32.62 -30.75 -29.45 -28.55 -28.08 -27.89 -28.05 -28.46 -28.88 -29.23 -29.46 -29.63 -29.72 -29.77 -30.04 -30.86 -31.33 -31.61 -31.91 -31.96 -31.36 -29.97 -28.27 -26.63 -25.34 -24.79 -25.17 -24.89 -25.77 8.42 7.22 10.46 11.21 9.91 8.33 6.93 5.62 4.31 2.68 -5.20 -15.44 -29.02 -45.16 -62.45 -78.63 -87.86 -78.23 -63.36 -63.92 -73.57 -86.55 -101.24 -116.73 -132.58 -148.05 -162.13 -174.70 173.83 162.64 151.89 140.81 128.66 114.68 102.56 93.78 84.09 75.57 69.43 64.76 58.14 47.58 33.70 16.84 -1.31 -15.72 -25.23 -32.73 -3.27 -3.22 -2.82 -2.29 -2.07 -2.02 -2.06 -2.14 -2.25 -2.42 -3.26 -4.42 -6.37 -9.78 -17.08 -23.37 -11.25 -7.01 -4.96 -3.73 -2.92 -2.40 -2.10 -1.99 -1.99 -2.00 -1.93 -1.75 -1.51 -1.26 -1.08 -0.99 -1.07 -1.36 -1.82 -2.25 -2.33 -2.04 -1.64 -1.27 -0.97 -0.83 -1.09 -2.03 -3.78 -5.58 -4.69 -6.17 -170.20 -177.59 179.75 174.84 169.34 164.14 159.35 154.89 150.65 146.01 126.15 106.91 85.09 59.67 28.50 -158.95 161.18 133.77 106.20 81.48 59.47 39.44 20.23 1.07 -18.26 -37.13 -54.51 -69.74 -82.60 -93.38 -102.57 -110.85 -119.52 -130.22 -144.24 -161.00 -176.91 171.92 166.22 164.25 163.32 160.50 152.54 137.49 116.75 99.74 87.70 75.97 0.972 1.244 1.275 1.212 1.177 1.166 1.168 1.176 1.189 1.201 1.269 1.339 1.432 1.563 1.750 2.051 2.557 2.926 2.228 1.420 0.964 0.726 0.634 0.763 1.040 1.491 2.003 2.471 2.966 3.480 4.186 5.464 8.527 16.497 36.982 76.824 255.376 284.336 96.597 47.911 23.387 13.048 11.264 14.322 20.654 29.409 27.596 43.126 9 MGA-31589 Typical Noise Parameters [1] TA = 25° C, Vdd = 5.0 V, Idd = 146 mA, Zo = 50 Ω Freq (GHz) Fmin (dB) Γopt Mag Γopt Ang Rn/Z0 Ga (dB) 0.5 1.80 0.59 -163.70 0.08 22.27 0.8 1.75 0.59 -157.40 0.07 21.69 0.9 1.54 0.59 -158.60 0.06 21.39 1.0 1.53 0.59 -151.30 0.07 21.11 1.5 1.34 0.58 -143.30 0.09 19.79 2.0 1.23 0.57 -131.00 0.13 18.67 2.5 1.15 0.56 -119.80 0.19 17.84 3.0 1.30 0.54 -109.00 0.23 17.13 3.5 1.48 0.53 -99.50 0.34 16.60 4.0 1.93 0.52 -91.50 0.54 16.16 4.5 2.64 0.51 -78.50 0.81 15.76 5.0 3.68 0.50 -58.60 1.29 15.03 5.5 5.06 0.49 -22.80 1.98 13.26 6.0 6.70 0.48 -5.40 2.68 11.93 Note: 1.
