The Big Deal
• Dual matched amplier for push-pull &
balanced ampliers
• High IP2 and IP3
• May be used as a replacement to WJ AH22a,b
Product Overview
Mini-Circuits PHA-22+ is a dual matched wideband amplier fabricated using advanced E-PHEMT technol-
ogy, offering high dynamic range (High IP3 and Low NF) for use in 50 and 75 ohm applications. Exception-
ally high IP2 has been demonstrated in wideband 50 and 75 ohm ampliers evaluation boards. Combining
this with low noise gure to enable it for use in exceptionally high dynamic range ampliers.
Key Features
Dual Matched MMIC Amplier
PHA-22+
50Ω 0.05 to 1.5 GHz
CASE STYLE: DL1020
Feature Advantages
Broadband Covers Cable TV band and communication bands such as Cellular, Cable TV, PCS, WiMAX etc.
Matched pair for use in
exceptionally high IP2
ampliers
Typical gain match of 0.2 dB and phase match of 1.6 deg. enables it to be used in push-pull ampli-
ers. Outstanding IP2.
High IP3, up to 43 dBm Ideal for suppressing unwanted intermods in the presence of multi carriers, which is common in
present day communication systems.
Low Noise Figure: 1.8 dB
typical
Compare this to the competitors, which is in the range of 4-6 dB. Mini-Circuits amplier improves
the dynamic range.
High P1dB: 22 dBm High P1dB enables the amplier to operate in linear region in the presence of strong interfering
signals.
a. Suitability for model replacement within a particular system must be determined by and is solely the responsibility of the customer based on, among other things, electrical performance
criteria, stimulus conditions, application, compatibility with other components and environmental conditions and stresses.
b. The WJ part number is used for identication and comparison purposes only.

RF IN, A1 1RF input pin. This pin requires the use of an external DC blocking capacitor chosen for the frequency of
operation. (see Application Circuit, Fig 2.)
RF-OUT and DC-IN,
A1 8
RF output and bias pin. DC voltage is present on this pin; therefore a DC blocking capacitor is necessary
for proper operation. An RF choke is needed to feed DC bias without loss of RF signal due to the bias
connection, as shown in “Recommended Application Circuit”, Fig 2

operation. (see Application Circuit, Fig 2.)

for proper operation. An RF choke is needed to feed DC bias without loss of RF signal due to the bias
connection, as shown in “Recommended Application Circuit”, Fig 2
GND 2,3,6,7 & paddle Connections to ground. Use via holes as shown in “Suggested Layout for PCB Design” to reduce ground
path inductance for best performance.
