RVA2007L RVA2007LAnalog Controlled Variable Gain Amplifier ANALOG CONTROLLED VARIABLE GAIN AMPLIFIER Package: MCM, 7 mm x 7 mm Features 1750 MHz to 2250 MHz Operation Gain = 24 dB Typical Gain Adjustment Range > 19dB ACPR > -66 dBc Typ. at +12 dBm POUT (Dual Carrier WCDMA) Small 7 mm x 7 mm, Multi-Chip Module Applications Cellular, 3G Infrastructure WiBro, WiMax, LTE Microwave Radio High Linearity Power Control Functional Block Diagram Product Description RFMD’s RVA2007L is a fully integrated analog controlled variable gain amplifier featuring exceptional linearity over a greater than 19 dB gain control range. This variable gain amplifier is controlled by a single 0 V to 3.3 V positive supply voltage. The RVA2007L is packaged in a small 7 mm x 7 mm leadless laminate MCM which contains thermal vias for ultra low thermal resistance. This module is internally matched to 50 and is easy to use with no external matching components required.
