Qorvo QPL1820 75Ω CATV Amplifier

Qorvo QPL1820 75Ω CATV Amplifier is an ultra-linear GaAs (Gallium Arsenide) pHEMT (Pseudomorphic High-Electron-Mobility Transistor) differential RF amplifier featuring 22dB of flat gain. The QPL1820 offers a 50MHz to 1800MHz frequency range providing an ideal solution for Broadband CATV DOCSIS 4.0 applications, such as nodes, amplifiers, and remote PHY devices, as well as Fiber to The Home (FTTH), home gateways, and cable modems. The device is powered by a single 5V supply at 260mA, which provides an output of 63dBmV TCP at a Modulation Error Ratio (MER) of 45dB.

The Qorvo QPL1820 75Ω CATV Amplifier is available in a compact, 12-pin 5.0mm x 5.0mm laminate module well-suited for space-constrained designs.
