    Key Features

    • DC to 3500MHz Operation
    • Cascadable 50 ohm
    • Single Voltage Supply
    • High Gain: 16.3 dB Typical at 1950 MHz
    • Low Thermal Resistance Package

    Qorvo's QPA4463A is a high performance SiGe HBT MMIC amplifier. A Darlington configuration provides high FT and excellent thermal performance. The heterojunction increases breakdown voltage and minimizes leakage current between junctions. Cancellation of emitter junction non-linearities results in higher suppression of intermodulation products. Only two DC-blocking capacitors, a bias resistor, and an optional RF choke are required for operation.
