NLB-310
CASCADABLE BROADBAND
GaAs MMIC AMPLIFIER DC TO 10GHz
• Narrow and Broadband Commercial and
Military Radio Designs
• Linear and Saturated Amplifiers
• Gain Stage or Driver Amplifiers for
MWRadio/Optical Designs (PTP/PMP/
LMDS/UNII/VSAT/WLAN/Cellular/DWDM)
The NLB-310 cascadable broadband InGaP/GaAs MMIC
amplifier is a low-cost, high-performance solution for gen-
eral purpose RF and microwave amplification needs. This
50
Ω gain block is based on a reliable HBT proprietary
MMIC design, providing unsurpassed performance for
small-signal applications. Designed with an external bias
resistor, the NLB-310 provides flexibility and stability. The
NLB-310 is packaged in a low-cost, surface-mount plastic
package, providing ease of assembly for high-volume
tape-and-reel requirements.
• Reliable, Low-Cost HBT Design
• 12.7dB Gain, +12.6dBm P1dB@2GHz
• High P1dB of +14.9dBm@6.0GHz and
+13.1dBm@10.0GHz
• Single Power Supply Operation
•50
Ω I/O Matched for High Freq. Use
