High Output Power Doubler Line Amplifier

The ACA2404 is a highly linear, high output power, monolithic GaAs RF Amplifier that has been developed to replace standard CATV hybrid Amplifiers in new designs. Offered in a convenient surface mount package, the MMIC consists of two pairs of parallel Amplifiers that are optimized for exceptionally low distortion and noise figure. A hybrid equivalent that provides flat gain response and excellent input and output return loss over the 40 to 870 MHz CATV downstream band is formed when one ACA2404 is cascaded between two appropriate transmission line baluns.
