Technical Data
Document Number: MMG15241H
Rev. 1, 4/2011
Enhancement Mode pHEMT
Technology (E-
-pHEMT)
High Linearity Amplifier
The MMG15241H is a high dynamic range, low noise amplifier MMIC, housed
in a SOT -- 89 standard plastic package. It is ideal for Cellular, PCS, LTE,
TD--SCDMA, W--CDMA base station, wireless LAN and other systems in the
500 to 2800 MHz frequency range. With high OIP3 and low noise figure, it can
be utilized as a driver amplifier in the transmit chain and as a second stage LNA
in the receive chain
.
