variable gain amplifier (VGA) housed in a low profile
Pb-free / green / RoHS-compliant surface-mount leadless
QFN package that measures 6 x 6 mm square.
The +30 dBm output compression point and +46 dBm
output intercept point of the amplifier are maintained over
the entire attenuation range, making the VG112 ideal for
use in transmitter and receiver AGC circuits. The high gain
of the dual-stage amplifier allows for more integration in a
transceiver board while requiring minimal printed circuit
board space.
Superior thermal design allows the product to have a
minimum MTTF rating of 100 years at a mounting
temperature of +85 ºC. All devices are 100% RF & DC
tested and packaged on tape and reel for automated surface-
mount assembly.

2140 MHz Application Circuit Performance
Performance using the circuitry on the VG112-PCB Evaluation Board
Circuit Board Material: .014” FR-4, 4 layers, .062” total thickness
•
The center of C5 should be placed 5mm (.197”) away from the edge of the VG112.
•
The input trace is a high impedance line and is needed to get a good input match into the VGA.
•
The board is optimized for performance at 2140 MHz. Performance at 1960 MHz can be
optimized by replacing C5 with 2.7 pF at location A on the WJ VG112 evaluation board.

VG112
PCS/UMTS-band Variable Gain Amplifier
Application Note: Reduced Bias Configurations
The VG112 can be configured to be operated with lower bias current by varying the bias-adjust resistors – R3 and R4 – which
set the current draw for the two stages of the amplifier. The recommended circuit configurations shown previously in this
datasheet have the device operating in Class A operation. Lowering the current moderately can be done at the expense of the
linearity performance of the device. Measured data is given below and represents the VG112 configured for 2.14 GHz
applications. Since the second stage amplifier dominates the current draw of the 2-stage amplifier inside the VG112,
modifying R3 will have the greatest effect upon the overall current draw of the device. Data is shown though to display the Icc
and performance effects of the device when R4, the bias-adjust resistor for the first-stage amplifier, is modified when R3 is
fixed.
