KGF1146
Small-Signal Amplifier
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The KGF1146 is a two-stage small-signal UHF-band amplifier that features low current operation, high output power, and high isolation. The KGF1146 specifications are guaranteed to a fixed
matching circuit for 5 V and 850 MHz; external impedance-matching circuits are also required.
Because of the high isolation, the KGF1146 is an ideal part for a VCO-buffer amplifiers and an
intermediate-stage amplifier for personal handy phones, such as cellular phones.
FEATURES
• Low current operation: 2.5 mA (max.)
• High output power: 1.5 dBm (min.)
• High isolation: –40 dB
• Self-bias circuit configuration with built-in source capacitor
• Package: 4PSOP
