Product Description
The AH114 is a high dynamic range driver amplifier in a
low-cost surface mount package. The InGaP/GaAs HBT
is able to achieve high performance across a broad range
with +41 dBm OIP3 and +24 dBm of compressed 1dB
power. It is housed in a lead-free/green/RoHS-compliant
SOT-89 SMT package. All devices are 100% RF and DC
tested.
The AH114 is targeted for use as a driver amplifier in
wireless infrastructure where high linearity and medium
power is required. An internal active bias allows the
AH114 to maintain high linearity over temperature and
operate directly off a single +5V supply.
This
combination makes the device an excellent candidate for
transceiver line cards in current and next generation
multi-carrier 3G base stations.

Notes:
The gain for the unmatched device in 50 ohm system is shown as the trace in black color. For a tuned circuit for a particular frequency, it is
expected that actual gain will be higher, up to the maximum stable gain. The maximum stable gain is shown in the dashed red line.
The impedance plots are shown from 50 – 3000 MHz, with markers placed at 0.5 – 3.0 GHz in 0.5 GHz increments.

Mounting Config. Notes
1. Ground / thermal vias are critical for the proper performance of this device.
Vias should use a .35mm (#80 / .0135”) diameter drill and have a final plated
thru diameter of .25 mm (.010”).
2. Add as much copper as possible to inner and outer layers near the part to
ensure optimal thermal performance.
3. Mounting screws can be added near the part to fasten the board to a heatsink.
Ensure that the ground / thermal via region contacts the heatsink.
4. Do not put solder mask on the backside of the PC board in the region where
the board contacts the heatsink.
5. RF trace width depends upon the PC board material and construction.
6. Use 1 oz. Copper minimum.
7. All dimensions are in millimeters (inches). Angles are in degrees.
