MGA-43228
(2.3–2.5) GHz 29dBm High Linearity Wireless Data Power Amplifier
Data Sheet
Description
Avago Technologies’ MGA-43228 is a power amplifier for
use in the (2.3-2.5)GHz band. High linear output power
at 5V is achieved through the use of Avago Technologies’
proprietary 0.25um GaAs Enhancement-mode pHEMT
process. It is housed in a miniature 5.0mm x 5.0mm x
0.85mm 28-lead QFN package. It also includes shutdown
and switchable gain functions. A detector is also included
on-chip. The compact footprint coupled with high gain
and high efficiency make the MGA-43228 an ideal choice
as a power amplifier for IEEE 802.16 (WiMAX) and WLL
applications.
Features
High gain: 38.5dB
High linearity performance: 29.2dBm at 5V supply (2.5%
EVM, 64-QAM ¾ FEC rate OFDMA, 10MHz bandwidth)
High efficiency: 16.1%
Built-in detector and shutdown switches
Switchable gain: 23.6dB attenuation using one single
CMOS compatible switch pin
ETSI spectral mask compliant at 29dBm output power

Note:
1. Enhancement mode technology employs positive Vgs, thereby
eliminating the need of negative gate voltage associated with
conventional depletion mode devices.
