Product Description
The AH215 / ECP100 is a high dynamic range driver
amplifier in a low-cost surface mount package. The
InGaP/GaAs HBT is able to achieve superior performance
for various narrowband-tuned application circuits with up
to +46 dBm OIP3 and +31.5 dBm of compressed 1-dB
power. The part is housed in a lead-free/green/RoHS-
compliant SOIC-8 package. All devices are 100% RF and
DC tested.
The product is targeted for use as driver amplifier for
various current and next generation wireless technologies
such as GPRS, GSM, CDMA, W-CDMA, and UMTS,
where high linearity and high power is required. The
internal active bias allows the AH215 / ECP100 to maintain
high linearity over temperature and operate directly off a
+5 V supply.

4. Typical parameters reflect performance in a tuned application circuit at +25° C.
1. Test conditions unless otherwise noted: 25ºC, +5V Vsupply, 2140 MHz, in tuned application circuit.
2. 3OIP measured with two tones at an output power of +15 dBm/tone separated by 1 MHz. The
suppression on the largest IM3 product is used to calculate the 3OIP using a 2:1 rule.
3. This corresponds to the quiescent current or operating current under small-signal conditions into
pins 6, 7, and 8. It is expected that the current can increase by an additional 90 mA at P1dB. Pin 1
is used as a reference voltage for the internal biasing circuitry. It is expected that Pin 1 will pull
10.8 mA of current when used with a series bias resistor of R1=51
Ω.
(ie. total device current
typically will be 461 mA.)
