TGA1328-SCC

The TriQuint TGA1328-SCC is a medium power wideband AGC amplifier that typically provides 12 dB saturated gain with 6 dB AGC range. Typical input and output return loss is greater than 10dB. Typical Noise Figure is 2.5 dB at 3 GHz. Minimum saturated output power is 25 dBm. Small signal BW is near 14 GHz with saturated power performance to 18 GHz. 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 12.5 Gb/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 TGA1328-SCC is available in chip form or assembled into a surface mount package.
