RF Amplifiers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific datasheet version when sourcing, as some sources indicate a 5-4000 MHz range while others specify 5-6000 MHz. Confirm the manufacturer is BeRex Corporation and that the package is SOT-89-3. Ensure compliance with RoHS2 standards if required by your design specifications. Cross-reference part markings labeled 'BG' to confirm authenticity.

RF Amplifiers Selection Notes

Select this component for wideband applications demanding consistent gain flatness and high linearity. The SOT-89 package suits space-constrained PCB layouts. Consider the cascadable nature if higher gain stages are needed. Validate the frequency requirement against the 5-6000 MHz specification to ensure compatibility with target wireless protocols like 5G NR and LTE.
