ACA2401S7 750/870 MHz Power Doubler CATV Line Amplifier MMIC Advanced Product Information - Rev 3 FEATURES · · · · · · · · · · 21.5 dB Gain Very Low Distortion Excellent Input/Output Match Low DC Power Consumption Good RF Stability with high VSWR Load Conditions Surface Mount Package Package Fully Automatic Assembly Compatible Low Cost Repeatability of Monolithic Fabrication Meets Cenelec Standard S7 16 Pin Plastic Pin Package Description The ACA2401 surface mount monolithic GaAs RF Linear Amplifier has been developed to replace, in new designs, the standard CATV Hybrid amplifiers currently in use. The MMIC consists of two pair of parallel amplifiers. The Amplifiers are optimized for exceptionally low distortion and noise figure while providing flat gain and excellent input and output return loss. A Hybrid equivalent is formed when one ACA2401 is cascaded between two transmission line baluns.
