3.8 GHz Linear Power Amplifier and BTS Driver High Efficiency/Linearity Amplifier The MMZ38333B is a 3--stage high linearity InGaP HBT broadband amplifier designed for small cells and LTE base stations. It provides exceptional linearity for LTE air interface with an ACPR of –48 dBc at an output power greater than 22.3 dBm, covering frequencies from 3400 to 3800 MHz. It operates off a 5 V supply voltage. The amplifier is internally pre--matched with the flexibility to change external matching to suit the final application and offers state--of--the-- art reliability, ruggedness, temperature stability and ESD performance.
