DESCRIPTION
The NE/SA5204A family of wideband amplifiers replaces the
NE/SA5204 family. The ‘A’ parts are fabricated on a rugged 2 m
bipolar process featuring excellent statistical process control.
Electrical performance is nomically identical to the original parts.
The NE/SA5204A is a high-frequency amplifier with a fixed insertion
gain of 20dB. The gain is flat to 0.5dB from DC to 200MHz. The
-3dB bandwidth is greater than 350MHz. This performance makes
the amplifier ideal for cable TV applications. The NE/SA5204A
operates with a single supply of 6V, and only draws 25mA of supply
current, which is much less than comparable hybrid parts. The noise
figure is 4.8dB in a 75 system and 6dB in a 50 system.
The NE/SA5204A is a relaxed version of the NE5205. Minimum
guaranteed bandwidth is relaxed to 350MHz and the “S” parameter
Min/Max limits are specified as typicals only.
Until now, most RF or high-frequency designers had to settle for
discrete or hybrid solutions to their amplification problems. Most of
these solutions required trade-offs that the designer had to accept in
order to use high-frequency gain stages. These include high power
consumption, large component count, transformers, large packages
with heat sinks, and high part cost. The NE/SA5204A solves these
problems by incorporating a wideband amplifier on a single
monolithic chip.
The part is well matched to 50 or 75 input and output impedances.
The standing wave ratios in 50 and 75 systems do not exceed 1.5
on either the input or output over the entire DC to 350MHz operating
range.
Since the part is a small, monolithic IC die, problems such as stray
capacitance are minimized. The die size is small enough to fit into a
very cost-effective 8-pin small-outline (SO) package to further
reduce parasitic effects.
No external components are needed other than AC-coupling
capacitors because the NE/SA5204A is internally compensated and
matched to 50 and 75 . The amplifier has very good distortion
specifications, with second and third-order intermodulation
intercepts of +24dBm and +17dBm, respectively, at 100MHz.
The part is well matched for 50 test equipment such as signal
generators, oscilloscopes, frequency counters, and all kinds of
signal analyzers. Other applications at 50 include mobile radio, CB
radio, and data/video transmission in fiber optics, as well as
broadband LANs and telecom systems. A gain greater than 20dB
can be achieved by cascading additional NE/SA5204As in series as
required, without any degradation in amplifier stability.
