M/A-COM Technology Solutions Announces New GaAs Broadband Push-Pull Amplifier for CATV Infrastructure
Applications
-- The 8.0 V, 20.5 dB Gain amplifier is configured as a pair of cascade structures with excellent
broadband performance.

Lowell, MA, August 10, 2011 – M/A-COM Technology Solutions Inc. (M/A-COM Tech), a leading supplier of high
performance analog semiconductor solutions, introduced today a new GaAs broadband push-pull CATV amplifier. The
amplifier features 20.5 dB gain, with broadband linear performance. Packaged in a 4mm QFN, 20-lead plastic
package, the MAAM-009455 is an ideal inter-stage or output amplifier. “With the introduction
of the MAAM-009455, we continue to expand our portfolio of high performance amplifiers for CATV infrastructure
applications,” said Graham Board, Product Manager. “The MAAM-009455 utilizes M/A-COM Tech’s established 0..5 μm
MESFET process to deliver a highly linear, 75 Ω, push-pull amplifier with 20.5 dB of small signal gain.”
The
MAAM-009455 targets next generation CATV HFC, FTTx, HDTV, and EdgeQAM infrastructure applications, where high gain
and low distortion are a requirement. The MAAM-009455 is a highly linear amplifier, with low noise figure and
power dissipation. This differential amplifier uses M/A-COM Tech baluns, input and output, in order to ensure
best-in-class second order performance. The amplifier also features external feedback, allowing for gain tuning.
The MAAM-009455 exhibits an excellent gain flatness of 0.5 dB typical over the 50 to 1000 MHz operating band.
Input return loss has been optimized to achieve better than 20 dB across the band. Very low distortion
characteristics provide excellent composite second order (CSO), and composite triple beat (CTB) performance. This
amplifier exceeds DOCSIS 3.0 DRFI specifications making it an ideal output stage solution for EdgeQAM head-end
infrastructure.
The table below outlines specific part number performance:

Production quantities and samples of MAAM-009455 are available from stock. Final datasheets and additional

RF Cafe began life in 1996 as "RF Tools" in an AOL screen name web space totaling
2 MB. Its primary purpose was to provide me with ready access to commonly needed
formulas and reference material while performing my work as an RF system and circuit
design engineer. The World Wide Web (Internet) was largely an unknown entity at
the time and bandwidth was a scarce commodity. Dial-up modems blazed along at 14.4 kbps
while tying up your telephone line, and a nice lady's voice announced "You've Got
Mail" when a new message arrived...
