At 1000 MHz, the ECG008B-G typically provides 15 dB of gain, +40 dBm Output IP3, and +24 dBm P1dB. Pin No. Label 1 2 3 Backside Paddle RF IN GND RF OUT / VCC GND The ECG008B-G consists of Darlington pair amplifiers using the high reliability InGaP / GaAs HBT process technology and only requires DC-blocking capacitors, a bias resistor, and an inductive RF choke for operation. The device is ideal for wireless applications and is available in a lead-free/green/RoHS-compliant SOT-89 package. All devices are 100% RF and DC tested. This broadband MMIC amplifier can be directly applied to various current and next generation wireless technologies. In addition, the ECG0038B-G will satisfy general amplification requirements in the DC to 4 GHz frequency range such as CATV and mobile wireless.

Vias are required under the backside paddle of this device for proper RF/DC grounding and thermal dissipation. 4. Do not remove or minimize via hole structure in the PCB. Thermal and RF grounding is critical. 5. We recommend a 0.35mm (#80/.0135") diameter bit for drilling via holes and a final plated thru diameter of 0.25 mm (0.10”). 6. Ensure good package backside paddle solder attach for reliable operation and best electrical performance.
