Product Information
The ECG003 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 lowcost, surface-mountable SOT-89 package. ECG003 is also
available in a lead-free/green/RoHS-compliant SOT-89
package All devices are 100% RF and DC tested.

1. The proper values for the components are dependent upon the intended frequency of operation.
2. The component values in the table below are contained on the evaluation board to achieve optimal broadband
performance.
3. R2 and R3 are shown in the circuit diagram to avoid potential instabilities. The configuration shown above assures
of unconditional stability with the use of the device. It is expected that linearity parameters (OIP3 and P1dB) to
degrade about only 0.5 dB, while overall gain will be about 2 dB less than the performance shown in page 1 and 2 of
this datasheet. Input and output return loss is expected to improve with the use of the I/O series resistances at 2 GHz.
