BGE02

RF Amplifiers Overview

The BGE02 is a broadband GaAs E-pHEMT amplifier IC designed for wireless infrastructure applications. It operates within a frequency range of 30MHz to 4GHz, providing a typical gain of 17.4dB and a noise figure of 1.9dB. The device delivers an output power at 1dB compression (P1dB) of 17.7dBm. It requires a supply voltage between 3.2V and 3.4V, with a supply current ranging from 56mA to 82mA. The component is housed in a compact SOT-363 surface-mount package and is tested at a frequency of 3.5GHz.

RF Amplifiers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix to ensure the correct packaging format matches your assembly requirements. Confirm that the RoHS3 compliance status aligns with your environmental regulations. Check the moisture sensitivity level (MSL 1) handling instructions if storage conditions exceed recommended limits. Ensure the supplier provides valid traceability documentation for quality assurance purposes.

RF Amplifiers Selection Notes

Select this component when a fixed-gain broadband solution is required for frequencies up to 4GHz. Consider the SOT-363 package size constraints for space-sensitive designs. Evaluate the 17.7dBm P1dB limit against your system's dynamic range requirements. Verify that the 3.2V to 3.4V supply voltage is compatible with your existing power distribution network.
