100 MHz to 4000 MHz RF/IF Digitally Controlled VGA Data Sheet ADL5243 FEATURES GENERAL DESCRIPTION Operating frequency from 100 MHz to 4000 MHz
The ADL5243 is a high performance, digitally controlled
Digitally controlled VGA with serial and parallel interfaces
variable gain amplifier operating from 100 MHz to 4000 MHz.
6-bit, 0.5 dB digital step attenuator
The VGA integrates two high performance amplifiers and a
31.5 dB gain control range with ±0.25 dB step accuracy
digital step attenuator (DSA). Amplifier 1 (AMP1) is an
Gain Block Amplifier 1
internally matched gain block amplifier with 20 dB gain, and
Gain: 19.2 dB at 2140 MHz
Amplifier 2 (AMP2) is a broadband ¼ W driver amplifier that
OIP3: 40.2 dBm at 2140 MHz
requires very few external tuning components. The DSA is 6-bit
P1dB: 19.8 dBm at 2140 MHz
with a 31.5 dB gain control range, 0.5 dB steps, and ±0.25 dB
Noise figure: 2.9 dB at 2140 MHz
step accuracy. The attenuation of the DSA can be controlled
¼ W Driver Amplifier 2
using a serial or parallel interface.
Gain: 14.2 dB at 2140 MHz OIP3: 41.1 dBm at 2140 MHz
The gain block and DSA are internally matched to 50 Ω at their
P1dB: 26.0 dBm at 2140 MHz
inputs and outputs, and all three internal devices are separately
Noise figure: 3.7 dB at 2140 MHz
biased. The separate bias allows all or part of the ADL5243 to be
Gain block, DSA, or ¼ W driver amplifier can be first
used, which allows for easy reuse throughout a design. The
Low quiescent current of 175 mA
pinout of the ADL5243 also enables the gain block, DSA, or
The companion ADL5240 i ntegrates a gain block with DSA
¼ W driver amplifier to be first, giving the VGA maximum flexibility in a signal chain.
APPLICATIONS
The ADL5243 consumes 175 mA and operates off a single
Wireless infrastructure
supply ranging from 4.75 V to 5.25 V. The VGA is packaged in a
Automated test equipment
thermally efficient, 5 mm × 5 mm, 32-lead LFCSP and is fully
