MGA-43528
High Linearity (1.93 – 1.995) GHz Power Ampli er Module
Data Sheet
Description
Avago Technologies MGA-43528 is a fully matched
power ampli er for use in the (1.93 – 1.995) GHz band.
High linear output power at 5V is achieved through the
use of Avago Technologies’ proprietary 0.25um GaAs En-
hancement-mode pHEMT process. MGA-43528 is housed
in a miniature 5.0mm x 5.0mm molded-chip-on-board
(MCOB) module package. A detector is also included
on-chip. The compact footprint coupled with high gain,
high linearity and good e ciency makes the MGA-43528
an ideal choice as a power ampli er for small cell BTS PA
applications.
Applications
 Final and driver stage high linearity ampli er for
Picocell and Enterprise Femtocell basestations
