At 1.9 GHz, the amplifier typically provides 19 dB gain, +31.7 dBm OIP3, and 4.6 dB Noise Figure while drawing 75 mA current. The device combines dependable performance with consistent quality to maintain MTTF values exceeding 100 years at mounting temperatures of +85°C. The device is housed in a lead-free/green/RoHS-compliant industry-standard SOT-89 package. Pin # Symbol 1 3 RF IN RF OUT 2, 4 GND The TQP369185 consists of a Darlington-pair amplifier using TriQuint’s high reliability InGaP/GaAs HBT process technology. Internal active bias enables operation with only DC-blocking capacitors and an RF choke on the DC bias feed. This broadband MMIC amplifier can be directly applied to various current and next generation wireless technologies such as CDMA, WCDMA, and LTE. In addition, the TQP369185 will work for other various applications within the DC to 6 GHz frequency range.

All dimensions are in millimeters[inches]. Angles are in degrees. 2. Use 1 oz. copper minimum for top and bottom layer metal. 3. Vias are required under the backside paddle of this device for proper RF/DC grounding and thermal dissipation. We recommend a 0.35mm (#80/.0135") diameter bit for drilling via holes and a final plated thru diameter of 0.25mm (0.10”). 4. Ensure good package backside paddle solder attach for reliable operation and best electrical performance.
