ACA2407RS7P2

Overview

The ACA2407RS7P2 is a monolithic GaAs RF amplifier designed for CATV applications. It operates within the 40 MHz to 1 GHz frequency range, providing a typical gain of 21.5 dB and a noise figure of approximately 4 dB. The device draws a supply current of 425 mA and is housed in a 16-SOIC-EP surface mount package. It is specified for performance up to 1 GHz and meets Cenelec standards.

Feature Summary

• Monolithic GaAs design optimized for low distortion and noise figure
• Excellent 75 Ω input and output impedance match
• Stable operation under high VSWR load conditions
• Surface mount package compatible with automatic assembly

Applications

• CATV line amplifiers
• CATV system amplifiers
• Distribution nodes

Procurement Notes

Verify component status as this part may be listed as obsolete in distributor databases. Confirm package type matches the 16-SOIC-EP specification. Ensure compatibility with existing CATV hybrid amplifier designs. Check RoHS compliance documentation. Validate supply current requirements against system power constraints.

Selection Notes

Select this component for designs requiring a direct replacement for standard CATV hybrid amplifiers. Consider the 21.5 dB gain and low distortion characteristics for signal integrity. Evaluate the 425 mA supply current for power budgeting. Ensure the 16-SOIC-EP package fits the PCB layout. Verify frequency coverage meets the 40 MHz to 1 GHz requirement.

Part Context

This RF amplifier belongs to Skyworks Solutions' portfolio of MMICs intended for cable television infrastructure. It serves as a modern alternative to traditional hybrid amplifiers, offering consistent part-to-part performance due to its monolithic construction. The series supports flat gain response across the downstream band when used with appropriate baluns.

Replacement Considerations

Public confirmed substitute part numbers are not available in the provided documentation. The ACA2407E variant shares similar functional descriptions but may differ in specific electrical parameters or packaging. Verify pinout and thermal requirements before considering any family members.
