TQP3M9009

RF Amplifiers Overview

The TQP3M9009 is a cascade-able, high linearity gain block amplifier manufactured by Qorvo. It operates within a frequency range of 50 MHz to 4 GHz and requires a 5-volt supply. Key electrical parameters include a typical gain of 21.8 dB at 1.9 GHz, a noise figure of 1.6 dB, and an input third-order intercept point (IIP3) of 37 dBm. The device features a P1dB compression point of 22 dBm and draws 125 mA of current. It is housed in a compact QFN-16 surface-mount package suitable for wireless applications.

RF Amplifiers Feature Summary

• Provides high linearity performance with a low noise figure for sensitive signal reception
• Designed as a cascade-able gain block for multi-stage amplifier configurations
• Operates on a single 5-volt power supply with moderate current consumption

RF Amplifiers Applications

• Wireless infrastructure base stations
• Point-to-point microwave radio systems
• Satellite communication ground terminals

RF Amplifiers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific manufacturing lot date code against project requirements before procurement. Confirm that the QFN-16 footprint matches the design schematic exactly. Ensure thermal management solutions are adequate for the specified operating temperature range. Check for any recent product change notices that may affect pinout or electrical characteristics.

RF Amplifiers Selection Notes

Select this component when a high linearity gain stage is required between receiver front-end filters and mixers. The 21.8 dB gain helps improve system sensitivity without introducing significant distortion. Consider the QFN-16 package size constraints during PCB layout planning. Evaluate cascading capabilities if higher overall gain is needed for long-distance links.

RF Amplifiers Part Context

This part belongs to Qorvo's portfolio of RF amplifiers designed for robust wireless communications. It serves as a critical intermediate gain stage in receiver chains. The device complements other Qorvo components like switches and LNAs to form complete RF front-end modules for modern communication standards.

RF Amplifiers Replacement Considerations

The TQP3M9009 is listed as obsolete. Engineers should evaluate alternative high-linearity gain blocks from Qorvo or other manufacturers that offer compatible QFN-16 packaging and similar 5V operation specifications.
