PRODUCT OVERVIEW  
GVA-62+ (RoHS compliant) is an wideband amplifier fabricated using InGap HBT technology and offers ultra flat gain over  
a broad frequency range and with high IP3. In addition, the GVA-62+,
 
has good input and output return loss over a broad  
frequency range without the need for external matching components and has demonstrated excellent reliability.
 
Lead finish is  
SnAgNi. It has repeatable performance from lot to lot and is enclosed in a SOT-89 package for very good thermal performance.

Feature  
Advantages  
Broadband covering primary wireless communications bands:  
Cellular, PCS, LTE, WiMAX  
Broad Band: 0.01 to 6.0 GHz  
0.8 dB over 50 to 6000 MHzꢀ
 
0.20 dB over ꢁ00 to 2ꢁ00 MHz  
eliminates need for gain flattening for most applications  
Ultra Flat Gain, 15 dB  
The GVA-62+ matches industry leading IP3 performance relative to device size and power consumption.
 
The  
combination of the design and InGap HBT Structure provides enhanced linearity over a broad frequency range as  
evidence in the IP3 being typically 20 dB above the P 1dB point to 0.8 GHz. This feature makes this amplifier ideal  
for use in:  
High IP3 vs. DC power Consumption  
39 dBm typical at 0.05 GHz  
3ꢁ dBm typical at 0.8 GHz  
y
Driver amplifiers for complex waveform up converter paths  
y
Drivers in linearized transmit systems  
No External Matching Components  
Required  
GVA-62+ provides Input and Output Return Loss of 10-23 dB up to 3 GHz without the need for any external  
matching components

RF input pin. This pin requires the use of an external DC blocking capacitor chosen for the frequency of operation.  
RF-OUT  
and DC-IN  
RF output and bias pin.
 
DC voltage is present on this pinꢀ 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  
Connections to ground.
 
Use via holes as shown in “Suggested Layout for PCB Design” to reduce ground path inductance for best  
performance.
