CGR-0218Z CGR-0218Z Push-Pull 5MHz to 210 MHz High Linearity InGaP HBT Amplifier PUSH-PULL 5MHz to 210MHz HIGH LINEARITY InGaP HBT AMPLIFIER Package: SOIC-8 Product Description Features RFMD’s CGR-0218Z is a high performance InGaP HBT MMIC Amplifier designed with the InGaP process technology for excellent reliability. A Darlington configuration is utilized for broadband performance. The heterojunction increases breakdown voltage and minimizes leakage current between junctions. The CGR-0218Z contains two amplifiers for use in wideband push-pull CATV amplifiers requiring excellent second order performance. The second and third order non-linearities are greatly improved in the push-pull configuration.
