Product Data Sheet February 14, 2008 DC-18GHz MPA with AGC OC-192 12.5GB/s LN/MZ Driver and Receive AGC Applications TGA1328-SCC Key Features and Performance 0.5um pHEMT Technology DC - 14GHz Linear Bandwidth DC -18GHz Saturated Power BW 16dB Small Signal Gain 6dB AGC Range 20ps Edge Rates (20/80) 8Vpp 12.5Gb/s NRZ PRBS 4dB Noise Figure @ 10GHz Low power dissipation Chip Dimensions 3.4mm x 2.3mm Description The TriQuint TGA1328-SCC is a medium power wideband AGC amplifier that typically provides 12dB saturated gain with 6dB AGC range. Typical input and output return loss is >10dB. Typical Noise Figure is 2.5dB at 3GHz. Minimum saturated output power is 25dBm. Small signal BW is near 14GHz with saturated power performance to 18GHz. RF ports are DC coupled enabling the user to customize system corner frequencies. The TGA1328-SCC is an excellent choice for 9.9, 10.7, and 12.5Gb/s NRZ applications driving a Lithium Niobate Optical Modulator with electrical Non-Return-to-Zero (NRZ) data. In addition it may be used as a receive AGC amplifier. Drain bias may be applied thru the on-chip drain termination resistor for low drive applications or thru the RF output port for high drive applications. The TGA1328-SCC requires off-chip decoupling and blocking components. Each device is 100% DC and RF tested on-wafer to ensure performance compliance. The TGA1328SCC is available in chip form or assembled into a surface mount package (see the TGA8652-EPU data sheet for mo...
