PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The ACA0861 family of surface mount monolithic
GaAs RF Linear Amplifiers has been developed to
replace, in new designs, the standard CATV Hybrid
amplifiers currently in use. The MMICs consist
of two parallel amplifiers, each with 12 dB gain.
The Amplifiers are optimized for exceptionally low
distortion and noise figure while providing flat gain
and excellent input and output return loss. There
are four differently specified amplifiers available: two
input stages and two output stages. The ACA0861A
and the ACA0861C are input stages and are
specified at +34 dBmV flat output. The ACA0861B
and ACA0861D are output stages and are specified at
+44 dBmV flat output. A Hybrid equivalent is formed
when one input stage ACA0861 is cascaded with an
ACA0861 output stage between two transmission
line baluns. For low gain applications a single
ACA0861 can be used between baluns, for higher
gain applications more than two ACA0861 can
be cascaded between baluns. See ACA0861
application note for more information.
