Product Description
The ECG002 is a general-purpose buffer amplifier that offers high dynamic range in a low-cost surface-mount package. At 1000 MHz, the ECG002 typically provides 20 dB of gain, +29 dBm Output IP3, and +15.5 dBm P1dB.
The ECG002 consists of Darlington pair amplifiers using the high reliability InGaP/GaAs HBT process technology and only requires DC-blocking capacitors, a bias resistor, and an inductive RF choke for operation. The device is ideal for wireless applications and is available in low-cost, surface-mountable plastic lead-free/green/RoHS-compliant SOT-363, SOT-86 and SOT-89 packages. All devices are 100% RF and DC tested.
The broadband MMIC amplifier can be directly applied to various current and next generation wireless technologies such as GPRS, GSM, CDMA, and W-CDMA. In addition, the ECG002 will work for other various applications within the DC to 6 GHz frequency range such as CATV and mobile wireless.
