General Description

Covering 50 MHz to 1.5 GHz, SAC3928Q3 is a GaAs MMIC driver amplifier in a leadless 3 x 3 mm QFN. Gain is 10 dB (±1 dB), output P1dB is 17 dBm at 1 GHz, OIP3 is 30 dBm and noise figure is 3.5 dB.

An on-chip gain-temperature compensation circuit holds gain steadier over temperature, which matters in a VHF/UHF receive chain. It needs a single +5 V supply at 80 mA, ports are 1.5:1 VSWR, and the package is 1.2 mm high. Use it as a general gain block or in communication receivers.
