AG403 The Communications Edge TM Preliminary Product Information InGaP HBT Gain Block Product Features Product Description Functional Diagram The AG403 is a general-purpose buffer amplifier that offers high dynamic range in a low-cost surface-mount package. At 900 MHz, the AG403 typically provides 20.5 dB of gain, +31 dBm Output IP3, and +17 dBm P1dB. The device combines dependable performance with consistent quality to maintain MTBF values exceeding 100 years at mounting temperatures of +85°C and is housed in a SOT-86 and SOT-89 industry standard SMT packages. • DC - 5000MHz • +17 dBm P1dB at 900MHz • +31 dBm OIP3 at 900MHz • 20.5 dB Gain at 900MHz • Single Voltage Supply • SOT-86 or SOT-89 SMT Package GND AG43 RF IN GND AG403-86 The AG403 consists of Darlington pair amplifiers using the high reliability InGaP/GaAs HBT technology process technology and only requires DC-blocking capacitors, a bias resistor, and an inductive RF choke for operation. • Internally matched to 50 Ω GND AG403 The broadband MMIC amplifier can be directly applied to various current and next generation wireless technologies such as GPRS, GSM, CDMA, W-CDMA, and UMTS. In addition, the AG403 will work for other various applications within the DC to 5 GHz frequency range such as CATV and fixed wireless.
