Product Description:
The TAG-3210 amplifier is ideally suited to provide linear power amplification for C-Band VSAT satellite
applications. Typical uses are as a driver amplifier for VSAT power modules and C-Band SATCOM
transmitters. The amplifier provides a minimum +26 dBm linear power output per channel and when
both are externally combined, over +29 dBm linear power can be achieved. Typical DC power
consumption is 1200 mA at +7.0V and 10 mA at -1.0V.

DC supply sequencing and protection circuitry not included. User must apply V
g
(negative voltage) before applying V
d
(positive voltage) to prevent damage to amplifier due to excessive current.
The bias point of the amplifier can be varied by adjustment of V
g
for specific applications. Lower DC current levels and greater
efficiencies can be obtained trading off absolute output power level and small signal gain using V
g
adjustments.
A 180 pF DC supply line decoupling capacitor is included on both V
d
and V
g
lines. Additional external capacitance may be
required (see typical biasing configuration shown above).
The unit must be soldered to DC and RF ground for best results.
Teledyne reserves the right to make changes without further notice to any specifications herein. “Typical” parameters can and do vary.
