The GRF2012-W from Guerrilla RF is a broadband linear gain block that operates from 700 to 3800 MHz. It provides a P1dB of 23 dBm with a gain of 14.8 dB and a noise figure of 2.7 dB while operating at 900 MHz. The device requires a supply voltage from 2.7 to 5 V and consumes up to 100 mA of current. It is available in a 1.5 x 1.5 mm surface mount package and is ideal for linear driver amplifier and cellular booster applications. The GRF2012-W is internally matched to 50 Ohms at the input and output ports, needing only external DC blocks and a bias choke on the output.
