Chang Sung Corp of Korea offers a complete range of toroids in MPP, high-flux and Sendust powder materials manufactured to the highest specifications.
This Micro-P packaged amplifier can be used as a cascadable 50ohm RF/IF gain stage with 15.5dB gain and up to +11dBm saturated output power.
The HMC474MP86 delivers an output IP3 of +22dBm at 850MHz, while operating from a single positive supply as low as +3V, and consuming only 25mA.
The Darlington feedback pair topology results in reduced sensitivity to normal process variations and excellent gain stability over temperature and requires no external matching components.
An RoHS compliant version of this product is available as the HMC474MP86E.
Samples and evaluation PC boards are available from stock and can be ordered via MRC Components.
