MGA-31716
0.1 W High Linearity Driver Amplifier
Data Sheet
Description
Avago Technologies MGA-31716 is a high linearity driver
MMIC Amplifier housed in a standard QFN 3X3 16 lead
plastic package. It features high gain, low operating
current, low noise figure with good input and output
return loss. Power consumption can be further reduced
by reducing the quiescent bias current using two external
bias resistors. The device can be easily matched at different
frequencies to obtain optimal linearity performance at
those frequencies.
MGA-31716 is especially ideal for 50
:
wireless infrastruc-
ture application operating from DC to 2 GHz frequency
range. With the high linearity, excellent gain flatness and
low noise figure the MGA-31716 may be utilized as a driver
amplifier in the transmit chain and as a second stage LNA
in the receiver chain.
This device uses Avago Technologies proprietary 0.25
Pm
GaAs Enhancement mode PHEMT process.

Notes:
1. Measurements obtained from test circuit and demoboard detailed in Figures 46 and 47 and Table 3.
2. OIP3 test condition: F1 – F2 = 1 MHz, with input power of -12 dBm per tone measured at worst case side band.
3. LFOM is defined as LFOM = OIP3 (in dBm) – P
DC
(in dBm). It is a measure of the linearity of an amplifier per unit of DC power consumed.
4. Demoboard tuned to best OIP3 with minimum over-temperature drift.

Notes:
1. Data sample size is 4000 samples taken from 4 different wafers and 2 different lots. Future wafers allocated to this product may have nominal
values anywhere between the upper and lower limits.
2. Measurements are made on production test board which represents a trade-off between optimal Gain, NF, OIP3 and P1dB. Circuit losses have been
de-embedded from actual measurements.
