Richardson RFPD Introduces 1/2-Watt RF Driver Amplifier from ADI
|
July 31, 2012 Press Release

-- Dynamically-Adjustable Biasing Circuit Allows for Customization
of OIP3 and P1dB Performance from 3.3 V to 5 V
July 31,
2012 – LaFox, Illinois: Richardson RFPD, Inc. today announces immediate
availability and full design support capabilities for a new 1/2-watt
RF driver amplifier from Analog Devices, Inc. (ADI). The ADL5324 incorporates
a dynamically-adjustable biasing circuit that allows for the customization
of OIP3 and P1dB performance from 3.3 V to 5 V, without the need for
an external bias resistor. This versatile feature creates the opportunity
for dynamic biasing of the device where a variable supply is used to
allow for full 5 V biasing under large signal conditions, and then reduced
supply voltage when signal levels are smaller and lower power consumption
is desirable.
The
ADL5324 is rated to operate across a wide temperature range (−40°C to
+105°C), covers a wide frequency range (400 MHz to 4000 MHz), and requires
few external components to be tuned to a specific band within that wide
range. This high performance broadband RF driver amplifier is well suited
for a variety of wired and wireless applications, including cellular
infrastructure, ISM band power amplifiers, defense equipment, and instrumentation
equipment. A fully populated evaluation board is available.
Additional key features of the ADL5324 include:
- Gain of 14.6 dB at 2140 MHz
- OIP3 of 43.1 dBm at 2140 MHz
- P1dB of 29.1 dBm at 2140 MHz
- Noise figure of 3.8 dB
- SOT-89 package, MSL-1 rated
- ESD rating of ±3 kV (Class 2)
The device is part of ADI's Select Products for Q3, 2012.
Common
configurations are in stock and available for immediate delivery. To
find more information, or to purchase the device today on the Richardson
RFPD website, please visit the ADL5324 webpage. The device is also available
by calling 1-800-737-6937 (within North America); or please find your
local sales engineer (worldwide) at Local Sales Support. To learn more

webpage.

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...
