NXP Semiconductors RF Amplifiers BGA3023518

The BGA3023518 is a dual wideband RF amplifier designed for CATV applications, operating within a frequency range of 40 MHz to 1200 MHz. It features a high gain output with a 1 dB compression point of 30 dBm and maintains high linearity with an output third-order intercept point (IP3) of 46.5 dBm and an output second-order intercept point (IP2) of 85 dBm. The amplifier is housed in an 8-pin HSO8 package and is internally biased, allowing for a total supply current that can be controlled between 175 mA and 350 mA. It operates from a supply voltage of 5 V to 8 V and has a 75 Ω input and output impedance, making it suitable for use in medium power output stages in optical nodes, distribution amplifiers, trunk amplifiers, and line extenders within CATV infrastructure networks. The device is rated for ambient temperatures ranging from -40 °C to +85 °C.
