Product Description

The SCG002 is a general-purpose buffer amplifier that

offers high dynamic range in a low-cost surface-mount

package. At 1000 MHz, the SCG002 typically provides 21

dB of gain, +29 dBm Output IP3, and +15.5 dBm P1dB.

The SCG002 consists of Darlington pair amplifiers using

the high reliability InGaP/GaAs HBT process technology

and only requires DC-blocking capacitors, a bias resistor,

and an inductive RF choke for operation. The device is

ideal for wireless applications and is housed in a lead-

free/green/RoHS-compliant SOT-89 SMT package.

All

devices are 100% RF and DC tested.

The broadband MMIC amplifier can be directly applied to

various current and next generation wireless technologies

such as GPRS, GSM, CDMA, and W-CDMA. In addition,

the SCG002 will work for other various applications within

the DC to 6 GHz frequency range such as CATV and

mobile wireless.

Ω, 50 Ω system.

2. 3OIP measured with two tones at an output power of +2 dBm/tone separated by 1 MHz. The

suppression on the largest IM3 product is used to calculate the 3OIP using a 2:1 rule.
