Instrumentation, OP Amps, Buffer Amps

The TSV911AILT is a broadband voltage-controlled amplifier that provides voltage gain control over a wide frequency range. It provides 65.5 dB of voltage gain control and 12 dB of dynamic range at 18 GHz, while linearity exceeds 10 dB. It has an internal impedance of 50 ohms and provides a maximum output power range of 6 dBm. The wide dynamic range, low current consumption, wide input and output range and excellent linearity make the TSV911AILT suitable for many applications, including blocker/attenuator, VGA for gain or phase control, and filter tailoring.

Application Field and Working Principle

The TSV911AILT can be used in a variety of applications due to its wide bandwidth and excellent linearity. It is ideal for use in test and measurement, motion control, wideband signal analysis, spectrum analysis, and base station control. The amplifier has a gain control range of 0 to -65.5 dB, with no spurious products. Gain control is achieved by varying the DC voltage on the gain control pin (Pin 6).

The TSV911AILT is capable of withstanding input signal levels up to +10 dBm. The device is protected against ESD and reverse voltage. The input stage is composed of a differential pair of transistors, while the output stage consists of two emitter followers. The amplifier provides excellent linearity, input and output dynamic range, and low noise performance. It can also be used in a wide range of operating temperatures.

In conclusion, the TSV911AILT is a low power, broadband voltage-controlled amplifier that offers superior linearity and low distortion. It is suitable for a variety of applications due to its wide dynamic range, low current consumption, wide input and output range, and excellent linearity. It is protected against ESD and reverse voltage.
