0.25-6.0 GHz High Dynamic Range Amplifier CMM6004-AH February 2008 - Rev 12-Feb-08 Features Functional Block Diagram 0.25 to 6.0 GHz Frequency Range +41 dBm Output IP3 1.7 dB Noise Figure 15 dB Gain +23 dBm P1dB LGA Package Single Power Supply Single Input Matching Pin 1 INPUT OUTPUT (BIAS) ALL OTHER PINS GROUNDED Description The CMM6004-AH is a high dynamic range amplifier designed for applications operating within the 0.25 to 6.0 GHz frequency range. It is an ideal solution for numerous transmit and receive functions in wireless local loop (WLL) and UNH applications where high linearity is required. The amplifier has the flexibility of being optimized for a number of wireless applications. It is an ideal solution when used as a driver amplifier in applications including cellular and PCS (personal communications services) operating from 0.8 to 2.2 GHz; MMDS (multichannel multipoint distribution systems) operating from 2.2 to 2.7 GHz; WLAN (wireless LAN) operating at 2.4 GHz; WLL (wireless local loop) operating at 3.5 GHz; and HiperLAN (high performance LAN) and U-NII (unlicensed national information infrastructure) operating from 5.0 to 6.0 GHz. The CMM6004-AH is packaged in a low-cost, space efficient, Land Grid Array (LGA) package which provides excellent electrical stability and low thermal resistance. All devices are 100% RF and DC tested. With single input matching the part simplifies design by keeping board space and cost to a minimum.
