Description
The EC-1119 is a high reliability, low cost broadband amplifier, optimized for commercial communications. The device is
manufactured using in-house developed, advanced Indium Gallium Phosphide Heterojunction Bipolar Transistor (InGaP
HBT) technology and is designed for use as a 50 Ohm gain block. The amplifier features excellent VSWR, low noise figure
and highly linear performance. Typical OIP3 is +36dBm at 80 mA. The EC-1119 operates from a single voltage supply and
requires only two DC-blocking capacitors, a bias resistor and an inductor for operation. The device is ideal for wireless
applications and is available in a low cost, surface-mountable plastic 85 mil Micro-X package.
