Description
Agilent ’s ABA-54563 is an economi-
cal, easy-to-use internally 50-ohm
matched silicon monolithic amplifier
that offers excellent gain and
broadband response from DC to
3.4 GHz. Packaged in an ultraminia-
ture industry-standard SOT-363
package, it requires half the board
space of a SOT-143 package.
At 2 GHz, the ABA-54563 offers a
small-signal gain of 23 dB, output
P1dB of 16.1 dB and 27.8 dBm
output third order intercept point.
It is suitable for use as buffer
amplifiers for wideband applica-
tions. They are designed for low
cost gain blocks in cellular applica-
tions, DBS tuners, LNB and other
wireless communications systems.
At IF frequencies, the ABA-54563
offers good linearity performance
with a typical OIP3 of 35 dBm at
200 MHz.
ABA-54563 is fabricated using
Agilent’s HP25 silicon bipolar
process, which employs a double-
diffused single polysilicon process
with self-aligned submicron emitter
geometry. The process is capable of
simultaneous high f
T
and high NPN
breakdown (25 GHz f
T
at 6V BVCEO).
The process utilizes industry stan-
dard device oxide isolation technolo-
gies and submicron aluminum
multilayer interconnect to achieve
superior performance, high unifor-
mity and proven reliability.
