1.2 GHz Balanced Low Noise Linear Amplifier. The ABA3116 is a monolithic IC intended for use in applications requiring high linearity, such as Cellular Telephone Base Station Driver Amplifiers, CATV Fiber Receiver and Distribution Amplifiers, CATV Drop Amplifiers, CATV Set Top Boxes and Home Gateways. Offered in a modified 16 lead surface mount SOIC package with heat slink slug that is RoHS-Compliant, it is well suited for use in amplifiers where small size, reduced component count, and high reliability are important.
