M/A-COM Technology Solutions Inc. introduced a new Analog Control Variable Gain Amplifier (VGA) for Cellular Infrastructure applications.
M/A-COM Technology Solutions Inc. introduced a new Analog Control Variable Gain Amplifier (VGA) for Cellular Infrastructure applications. The MAAM-009320 is designed to lower bill of materials cost and complexity for OEM design engineers who are designing next generation 3G/4G/LTE base stations.
New base station designs have multi-band capabilities but numerous space constraints. The MAAM-009320 delivers higher levels of integration and space savings by performing three circuit functions in a single 4mm PQFN package. The MAAM-009320 has a wide frequency range complimented by high gain and excellent input and output return loss. Packaged in a RoHS compliant 4mm, 24-Lead PQFN package, the VGA is designed for operation from 400MHz - 2700MHz. External matching components are used to set the center frequency and achieve return loss performance while analog control is accomplished through a single control pin of 0 to +3V.
