Product data sheet
1. Product profile
1.1 General description
The BGA7124 MMIC is a one-stage amplifier, available in a low-cost leadless
surface-mount package. It delivers 25 dBm output power at 1 dB gain compression and
superior performance up to 2700 MHz. Its power saving features include easy quiescent
current adjustment enabling class-AB operation and logic-level shutdown control to
reduce the supply current to 4 μA.

If Vctrl(sd) exceeds VCC(BIAS), the internal ESD circuit can be damaged. To prevent this, it is recommended that the Ictrl(sd) is limited to
20 mA. If the SHDN function is not used, the SHDN pin should be connected to the VCC(BIAS) pin.

Exceeding the safe operating area limits may cause serious damage to the product.
The impact on ICC due to the spread of the external ICQ resistor (R2) should be taken into account.
The product-spread on ICC should be taken into account (see Section 8 “Static characteristics”).

therefore such inclusion and/or use is at the customer’s own risk.
Applications — Applications that are described herein for any of these
products are for illustrative purposes only. NXP Semiconductors makes no
representation or warranty that such applications will be suitable for the
specified use without further testing or modification.
Customers are responsible for the design and operation of their applications
and products using NXP Semiconductors products, and NXP Semiconductors
accepts no liability for any assistance with applications or customer product
design. It is customer’s sole responsibility to determine whether the NXP
Semiconductors product is suitable and fit for the customer’s applications and
products planned, as well as for the planned application and use of
customer’s third party customer(s). Customers should provide appropriate
design and operating safeguards to minimize the risks associated with their
applications and products.
NXP Semiconductors does not accept any liability related to any default,
damage, costs or problem which is based on any weakness or default in the
customer’s applications or products, or the application or use by customer’s
third party customer(s). Customer is responsible for doing all necessary
testing for the customer’s applications and products using NXP
Semiconductors products in order to avoid a default of the applications and
the products or of the application or use by customer’s third party
customer(s). NXP does not accept any liability in this respect.
Limiting values — Stress above one or more limiting values (as defined in
the Absolute Maximum Ratings System of IEC 60134) will cause permanent
damage to the device. Limiting values are stress ratings only and (proper)
operation of the device at these or any other conditions above those given in
the Recommended operating conditions section (if present) or the
Characteristics sections of this document is not warranted. Constant or
repeated exposure to limiting values will permanently and irreversibly affect
the quality and reliability of the device.
Terms and conditions of commercial sale — NXP Semiconductors
products are sold subject to the general terms and conditions of commercial
sale, as published at http://www.nxp.com/profile/terms, unless otherwise
agreed in a valid written individual agreement. In case an individual
