The F1431B is a high linearity RF Digital Variable Gain Amplifier, (DVGA) used as the power amplifier driver in transmitter applications. The F1431B provides 14dB gain, +41.1dBm OIP3, and a 4.2dB noise figure (NF) at 2.0GHz. The digital step attenuator (DSA) has a 23dB range with a 0.5dB step size and operates from 0.35GHz to 3GHz with one tuning circuit. This device uses a single 5V supply and 150mA of current.
The F1431BEVB is a fully-populated evaluation board which allows the customer to easily evaluate the F1431B differential input amplifier. Component placement of the output matching components C5, L1, and C6 is critical and these components should be placed as close to pin 1 of the F1431B as possible. Renesas recommends the customer seek guidance for board layout. PCB Gerber files upon request.
