RFMD says the RFPA1012 is an excellent solution for 2nd and 3rd stage LNAs for wireless infrastructure. It is also suitable for use as a GaAs pre-driver for base station amplifiers and class AB operation for DCS, PCS, UMTS, and WiFi transceiver applications.
The module has a high linearity of OIP3 = 44dBm at 900MHz and low noise (NF = 3.5dB at 900MHz). With a low DC power of 5V at 90mA, the device operates in the range of 400MHz to 2700MHz.
This product is currently available in production quantities. Pricing begins at $2.76 each for 100 pieces.
