ACA2417P2

Overview

The ACA2417P2 is a push-pull CATV amplifier manufactured by Skyworks Solutions Inc. It operates within a frequency range of 40 MHz to 1.218 GHz, designed for cable television applications. The device utilizes a 16-SOIC-EP surface-mount package with an exposed pad for thermal management. It supports a supply voltage of 24 V and draws a typical supply current of 240 mA. This component integrates RF amplification capabilities optimized for signal quality enhancement in broadband distribution networks.

Feature Summary

• Push-pull architecture for improved linearity
• Optimized for CATV signal distribution
• Surface mount package with thermal pad

Applications

• Cable Television (CATV) headends
• Broadband signal distribution systems
• RF amplification in hybrid fiber-coaxial networks

Procurement Notes

Verify product status as the ACA2417P2 is listed as obsolete in public distributor records. Confirm availability through direct manufacturer channels or authorized distributors for remaining stock. Ensure design-in decisions account for potential end-of-life constraints and long-term supply chain stability before finalizing procurement plans.

Selection Notes

Select this component for applications requiring wideband amplification up to 1.218 GHz in CATV environments. Consider the 24 V supply requirement and 240 mA current draw during power budgeting. Evaluate the 16-SOIC-EP package for PCB layout compatibility and thermal dissipation needs relative to system enclosure constraints.

Part Context

The ACA2417P2 belongs to Skyworks Solutions' portfolio of RF amplifiers tailored for cable infrastructure. It serves as a specialized solution for enhancing signal integrity in downstream distribution paths. As part of the broader wireless and RF integrated circuits category, it addresses specific performance requirements for analog video and data transmission over coaxial media.

Replacement Considerations

Publicly confirmed substitute part numbers are not available in the provided documentation. Due to the obsolete status, alternative solutions require evaluation based on functional equivalence, including frequency range, gain specifications, and package compatibility, rather than direct cross-reference.
