MHW8222BN

Video Amps And Modules Overview

The MHW8222BN is a CATV forward amplifier module operating from 40 to 860 MHz. It utilizes silicon bipolar transistor technology and requires a 24 Vdc supply with typical DC current of 220 mA at +30 °C case temperature. The device provides a power gain ranging from 21.4 dB to 22.7 dB across the frequency band, with a slope between 0.1 dB and 1.5 dB. Maximum ratings include a DC supply voltage of +28 Vdc and an RF input voltage of +70 dBmV. Operating case temperature ranges from -20 °C to +100 °C.

Video Amps And Modules Procurement Notes

Verify that the component matches the original MHW8222B specification, as this part replaces it without form, fit, or function changes. Confirm RoHS compliance status during acquisition. Ensure the procurement documentation references the correct Freescale Semiconductor datasheet number MHW8222BN Rev. 6. Validate that the supplier provides traceability for the archive information associated with this discontinued product line.

Video Amps And Modules Selection Notes

Select this module for CATV systems operating within the 40 to 860 MHz frequency range. Evaluate the specific channel loading requirements (77, 110, or 128 channels) to ensure the composite second-order and cross-modulation distortion levels meet system specifications. Consider the thermal management capabilities required to maintain the operating case temperature within the specified -20 °C to +100 °C range during continuous operation.

Video Amps And Modules Part Context

This component is manufactured by NXP USA Inc., formerly Freescale Semiconductor. It belongs to the category of RF device data specifically designed for cable television infrastructure. The module is housed in Case 1302-01, Style 1 package.
