package. This HBT amplifier is made with InGaP on GaAs
device technology and fabricated with MOCVD for an ideal
combination of low cost and high reliability.
This product is specifically designed for 802.16 customer
premise equipment (CPE) terminals in the 2.3-2.7 GHz bands.
It can run from a 3V to 6V supply. The external output match
and bias adjustability allows load line optimization for other
applications or over narrower bands. It features an output
power detector, on/off power control and high RF overdrive
robustness. A 20dB step attenuator feature can be utilized by
switching the second stage Power up/down control. This prod-
uct features a RoHS compliant and Green package with matte
tin finish, designated by the ‘Z’ suffix.
