Product Description
The RF2311 is a general purpose, low cost low power RF
amplifier IC. The device is manufactured on an advanced
Gallium Arsenide Heterojunction Bipolar Transistor (HBT)
process, and has been designed for use as an easily cas-
cadable 50鈩?gain block. Applications include IF and RF
amplification in wireless voice and data communication
products operating in frequency bands up to 1600MHz.
The gain flatness and high bandwidth make the device
suitable for many other applications as well. The device is
self-contained with 50鈩?input and output impedances,
and no external DC biasing elements are required to
operate as specified.
