BGA7204
400 MHz to 2750 MHz high linearity variable gain amplifier
Rev. 4 — 15 November 2016
Product data sheet
1. Product profile
1.1 General description
The BGA7204 MMIC is an extremely linear Variable Gain Amplifier (VGA), operating from
0.4 GHz to 2.75 GHz. At minimum attenuation it has a gain of 18.5 dB, an output IP3 of
38 dBm and a noise figure of 7 dB. The attenuation range is 31.5 dB with an
attenuation step of 0.5 dB.
The gain control is offered through a digital parallel interface or a digital serial interface
(SPI). The digital serial interface offers advanced features like reprogramming the
attenuation curve and on-chip temperature monitoring. The interfaces can be combined to
support response to fast fading. The serial interface can be used to pre-set the desired
gain level, whereas the parallel interface can be used to select this gain setting in 0.15
s.
It has been designed and qualified for the severe mission profile of cellular base stations,
but its outstanding RF performance and interfacing flexibility makes it suitable for a wide
variety of applications.
The BGA7204 is housed in a 32 pins 5 mm
5 mm leadless HVQFN package.
