PG181GR
GaAs MMIC DBS Twin IF Switch
DESCRIPTION
The
µ
PG181GR is intended for use in Direct Broadcast Satellite (DBS) applications within the Low Noise Block
(LNB) down-converter for systems where at least two LNB outputs are required.
It offers two intermediate frequency amplifier channels that can independently select 1 of 2 IF inputs. It is loused
in a very small 16-pin plastic HTSSOP package available on tape-and-reel and easy to install and contributes to
miniaturizing the systems.
FEATURES
• Two Independent IF Channels
• Integral Switching to Channel Input to Either Channel Output
• Insertion Loss Per Channel
• Frequency Range
: 5.0 dB TYP. (Z
O
= 50
Ω)
: 950 MHz to 2 150 MHz
• Channel to Channel Isolation : 33 dB TYP.
• Small 16-pin HTSSOP Package
