NXP Semiconductors 960MHZ Rf Amplifier MHL9236N

The MHL9236N is an RF linear LDMOS amplifier designed for ultra-linear applications in 50-ohm systems within the cellular frequency band of 800 to 960 MHz. It features a silicon FET Class A design that provides high linearity and gain, making it suitable for demanding analog and digital modulation systems such as TDMA, CDMA, and QPSK. Key specifications include a typical power gain of 30.5 dB at 880 MHz, a third-order intercept point of 47 dBm, and an input/output VSWR of less than 1.5:1. The amplifier operates with a DC supply voltage of up to 30 V and can handle RF input power levels of +10 dBm. It has a noise figure ranging from 3.5 to 4.5 dB across the specified frequency range. The MHL9236N is ideal for feedforward base station applications and is available with lead-free terminations, indicated by the 'N' suffix. Its excellent phase linearity and group delay characteristics enhance performance in various communication systems.
