AP3
Product Description
The AP3 is a high dynamic range FET packaged in a high frequency surface mount package. The combination of low noise figure and
high output IP3 at the same bias point makes it
ideal for receiver and transmitter applications.
The AP3 achieves +39 dBm OIP3 at a mounting temperature of 80˚C with an associated
MTBF of >100 years
4
. The package is a 3 X 3
Land Grid Array (LGA). All devices are 100%
RF and DC tested. The product is targeted for
applications where high linearity is required.
