SKY77558-11

SKY77558-11 is an RF integrated circuit and module designed by Skyworks Solutions for CATV infrastructure applications. CATV refers to a communication system which forms an infrastructure through a combined network of satellite and terrestrial radio frequency links to distribute television signals over a large geographical area. SKY77558-11 is designed to provide the necessary frequency and signal conversion functions needed for CATV applications in a compact package.

SKY77558-11 components are housed in a 8-pin Micro-Lead Frame (MLF) package, significantly reducing the overall size of the component. The device consists of a frequency mixer followed by an amplifier stage to provide signal conversion for CATV applications. The frequency mixer stage provides accurate and reliable signal conversion while the amplifier stage amplifies the input signal up to 38dB gain. The overall gain range of the IC is from +19 dB to 38 dB. The frequency range of the IC is from 5MHz to 862MHz.

Furthermore, the device features an isolation of more than 45dB, low NF (Noise Figure) of -18dB, and low Distortion of -54dBc which makes it suitable for a wide range of RF communication applications. The device is also capable of achieving 12V operation voltage and provides a lowcurrent consumption of 5mA at full power. This feature makes the device highly suitable for power supply sensitive applications.

SKY77558-11 is suitable for use in CATV infrastructure applications such as broadband access networks, cable TV systems, CATV distribution systems, and satellite TV networks. It supports a wide range of services including digital, analog, and interactive programming. In addition, the IC is also suitable for supporting wireless communication applications in the GHz frequency band.

In summary, SKY77558-11 is a highly advanced RF integrated circuit and module designed by Skyworks Solutions for CATV infrastructure applications. It is capable of providing accurate and reliable signal conversion and amplification, while needing only a small amount of power to operate due to its low power requirement of 5mA. This makes it suitable for a wide range of applications in the radio frequency industry.
