Product Features
Product Description
x 50 – 2000 MHz
The AH110 is a high dynamic range driver amplifier in a
low-cost surface mount package. The InGaP/GaAs HBT is
able to achieve performance over a broad range with +39
dBm OIP3 and +23 dBm of compressed 1-dB power and is
housed in an industry standard SOT-89 SMT package. All
devices are 100% RF and DC tested.
x +23 dBm P1dB
x +39 dBm Output IP3
x 20.5 dB Gain @ 900 MHz
x 17.6 dB Gain @ 1900 MHz
x Single Positive Supply (+8V)
The product is targeted for use as a gain block/driver
amplifier for various current and next generation wireless
technologies such as GPRS, GSM and CDMA, where high
linearity and medium power is required. In addition, the
AH110 will work for numerous other applications within
the 50 to 2000 MHz frequency range.

5. Typical parameters reflect performance in a tuned application circuit: Supply Voltage = +8 V, Icc =
100 mA, +25 C, Rbias = 30 .
6. This is measured with an IS-95 signal at (9 ch. Fwd)–45dBc ACPR.

1. Test conditions unless otherwise noted: 25 C, Vsupply = +8V, in tuned application circuit with
Rbias = 30 .
2. 3OIP measured with two tones at an output power of +9 dBm/tone separated by 1 MHz. The
suppression on the largest IM3 product is used to calculate the 3OIP using a 2:1 rule. The tuned
application circuit is tuned for optimum ACPR performance. An improvement in OIP3 of 2 to 3
dB can be achieved for tuning for optimum OIP3 (with slightly degraded ACPR performance).
3. This corresponds to the quiescent current or operating current under small-signal conditions.
4. This device requires a minimum 7 V power supply through a dropping resistor. 8 V and 30 ohms
are recommended for proper operation. Operation of the device directly to a 5 V supply could lead
to thermal damage to the device.

Notes:
The gain for the unmatched device in 50 ohm system is shown as the trace in blue color. For a tuned circuit for a particular frequency, it is expected that
actual gain will be higher, up to the maximum stable gain. The maximum stable gain is shown in the dashed red line.
The impedance plots are shown from 50 – 2500 MHz, with markers placed at 0.25 – 2 GHz in 0.25 GHz increments.

Mounting Config. Notes
1. Ground / thermal vias are critical for the proper
performance of this device. Vias should use a .35mm
(#80 / .0135” ) diameter drill and have a final plated
thru diameter of .25 mm (.010” ).
2. Add as much copper as possible to inner and outer
layers near the part to ensure optimal thermal
performance.
3. Mounting screws can be added near the part to fasten
the board to a heatsink. Ensure that the ground /
thermal via region contacts the heatsink.
4. Do not put solder mask on the backside of the PC board
in the region where the board contacts the heatsink.
5. RF trace width depends upon the PC board material
and construction.
6. Use 1 oz. Copper minimum.
7. All dimensions are in millimeters (inches). Angles are
in degrees

1. Ground / thermal vias are critical for the proper
performance of this device. Vias should use a .35mm
(#80 / .0135” ) diameter drill and have a final plated
thru diameter of .25 mm (.010” ).
2. Add as much copper as possible to inner and outer
layers near the part to ensure optimal thermal
performance.
3. Mounting screws can be added near the part to fasten
the board to a heatsink. Ensure that the ground /
thermal via region contacts the heatsink.
4. Do not put solder mask on the backside of the PC board
in the region where the board contacts the heatsink.
5. RF trace width depends upon the PC board material
and construction.
6. Use 1 oz. Copper minimum.
7. All dimensions are in millimeters (inches). Angles are
in degrees.

Notes:
1. The thermal resistance is referenced from the junctionto-case at a case temperature of 85 C.
2. This corresponds to the typical biasing condition of
+5V, 100 mA at an 85 C case temperature. A
minimum MTTF of 1 million hours is achieved for
junction temperatures below 247 C.
