QPL1811TR13

RF Amplifiers Overview

The QPL1811TR13 is a differential CATV amplifier IC from Qorvo, designed for cable television applications. It operates within a frequency range of 50 MHz to 1.8 GHz and delivers a typical gain of 16 dB. The device functions at a supply voltage between 5 V and 7 V with a current consumption of 290 mA. Key performance metrics include a noise figure of 3.5 dB, a P1dB compression point of 24 dBm, and an OIP3 of 42 dBm at 1.8 GHz. It utilizes GaAs technology and is housed in an 8-SOIC package.

RF Amplifiers Feature Summary

• Differential architecture optimized for CATV signal integrity
• GaAs technology for high-frequency performance
• Integrated linear amplification for cable networks

RF Amplifiers Applications

• CATV distribution systems
• Cable modem upstream paths
• RF signal conditioning in broadband infrastructure

RF Amplifiers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix (SR vs TR13) against official Qorvo documentation to confirm packaging and reel specifications. Ensure compatibility with moisture sensitivity levels and reflow profiles during assembly. Confirm that the differential configuration matches the target circuit design requirements before procurement.

RF Amplifiers Selection Notes

Select this component for designs requiring differential input/output configurations in the 50 MHz to 1.8 GHz band. Consider the 16 dB gain and 3.5 dB noise figure for low-noise amplification needs. Evaluate the 290 mA current draw against power budget constraints and verify thermal management capabilities for the SOIC-8 package.

RF Amplifiers Part Context

This part belongs to the QPL1811 series of RF amplifiers. It is distinct from single-ended variants like the QPL1818 or other gain levels within the family. The TR13 suffix indicates tape and reel packaging, while SR may denote cut tape or specific lot codes depending on manufacturer definitions.

RF Amplifiers Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes are not explicitly listed in public data. Review Qorvo's QPL1811 series for pin-compatible alternatives with adjusted gain or noise specifications. Verify electrical parameter overlaps if considering cross-model replacements.
