Product Description
The RF2360 is a general purpose, low-cost, high-linearity RF amplifier IC.
The device is manufactured on a Gallium Arsenide process and is featured
in an SOP-16 batwing package. It has been designed for use as an easily
cascadable 75Ω gain block with a Noise Figure of less than 2dB. Gain
flatness better than 0.5dB from 5MHz to 1000MHz, and high linearity
make this part ideal for cable TV applications. Other applications include
IF and RF amplification in wireless voice and data communication prod-
ucts operating in frequency bands up to 1000MHz. The device is self-con-
tained with 75Ω input and output impedances providing less than 2:1
VSWR matching. For higher input and output return losses, see the evalu-
ation schematic.
