Description The ACA1216 surface-mount GaAs RF linear amplifier has been The ACA1216 is designed as a single amplifier with similar total developed to provide a high-gain output stage for HFC/FTTC node gain and output power as the combination of ACA1206 and and ORM RF amplifiers that require highest bit delivery efficiency, ACA0862 or DOCSIS 3.1 compliant ACA1210 and ACA1216. low power consumption, and a ultra-small landed product ACA1216 provides a lower power dissipation solution than footprint. The MMIC consists of two parallel amplifiers, operating discrete amplifier cascades while providing better performance, from a 12 volt power supply, forming the industrys lowest cost error-free content delivery to 68 dBmV total composite power, per bit delivered power doubler (PD). The balanced amplifier smaller landed footprint, and lower BOM cost. approach is optimized for exceptionally low distortion and noise A block diagram of the ACA1216 is shown in Figure 1. The device figure, while providing flat gain and excellent input/output return package and pinout are shown in Figure 2.
