Preliminary 4 Typical Applications Broadband, Low Noise Gain Blocks IF or RF Buffer Amplifiers Driver Stage for Power Amplifiers RF2048 GENERAL PURPOSE AMPLIFIER Final PA for Low Power Applications High Reliability Applications Broadband Test Equipment Product Description The RF2048 is a general purpose, low cost RF amplifier IC. The device is manufactured on an advanced Gallium Arsenide Heterojunction Bipolar Transistor (HBT) process, and has been designed for use as an easily-cascadable 50 Ω gain block. Applications include IF and RF amplification in wireless voice and data communication products operating in frequency bands up to 8000MHz. The device is self-contained with 50 Ω input and output impedances and requires only two external DC biasing elements to operate as specified. With a goal of enhanced reliability, the extremely small Micro-X ceramic package offers significantly lower thermal resistance than similar size plastic packages. 45° + 1° 4 0.055 + 0.005 0.020 + 0.002 0.040 + 0.002 0.070 sq.
