Description
The CGB7289-BD is a single stage, high power, high dynamic range, utility
gain block amplifier. Designed for applications operating within the DC to
2.5 GHz frequency range, Mimix’s broadband, cascadable, gain block
amplifier is an ideal solution for transmit, receive and IF applications.
Mimix's InGaP HBT technology and an industry low thermal resistance
offers a thermally robust and reliable gain block solution.
The InGaP HBT die have extra pads to enable thorough DC testing. This
unique test capability and the inclusion of ESD protection on all die,
significantly enhances the quality, reliability and ruggedness of these
products.
This gain block amplifier offers significant ease of use in a broad range of
applications. The combination of high gain, P1dB and high OIP3 at low
current makes the CGB7289-BD an ideal transmit and receive solution
when used in applications including cellular, PCS and 3G services
operating from 0.8 to 2.2 GHz.
