MAX2065 Serial/ Parallel-Controlled Analog/Digital VGA

MAX2065 Serial/ Parallel-Controlled Analog/Digital VGA

The MAX2065 high-linearity, analog/digital variablegain amplifier (VGA) is designed to operate in the 50MHz to 1000MHz frequency range with two independent attenuators (see the Typical Application Circuit). The digital attenuator is controlled as a slave peripheral using either the SPI™-compatible i.

Features

include 22dB amplifier gain (amplifier only), 6.5dB NF at maximum gain (includes attenuator insertion losses), and a high OIP3 level of +42dBm. Each of these features makes the MAX2065 an ideal VGA for numerous receiver and transmitter applications. In addition, the MAX2065 operates from a single +5V supply with full performance, or a single +3.3V supply with slightly reduced performance, and has an adjustable bias to trade current consumption for linearity performance. This device is available in a compact 40pin thin QFN package (6mm x 6mm) with an exposed pad. Electrical performance is guara.
