M/A-COM Technology Solutions Announces New Broadband CATV Amplifier
Amplifier Exhibits Low Distortion, High Gain, and Low Noise Figure
Lowell, MA – M/A-COM Technology Solutions Inc. (M/A-COM Tech), a leading supplier of high performance analog semiconductor solutions, introduced today a new broadband amplifier for CATV applications.
The MAAM-010373 is a GaAs MMIC amplifier that exhibits low distortion and high gain in a lead-free surface mount package. The amplifier employs a monolithic single stage design, featuring convenient 75Ω input/output impedance which minimizes the number of external components required.
The MAAM-010373 is fabricated using a pHEMT process to realize low noise and low distortion. The process features full passivation for robust performance and reliability. Operating between the 50 MHz -1100 MHz frequency range, the amplifier exhibits a high gain of 22dB and low noise figure of 2.2 dB.
“Delivering 22dB of gain with 20dB output return loss, the MAAM-010373 is ideally suited for multitap drop amplifier applications” said Graham Board, Product Manager. “Customers are continuingly demanding more gain, improved linearity and reduced power dissipation. The MAAM-010373 delivers on all counts."Â
The table below outlines typical performance:
