The amplifier is ideally suited for use in CATV return
path applications, including DOCSIS 3.1 systems: it
offers low distortion and low noise figure with high
gain. It typically provides 3.1 dB noise figure,
21.2 dB gain, and 30 dB MER up to 57 dBmV per
channel for 16-Channel 64 QAM signaling while
drawing 290 mA DC current @ 5 V bias.

5. Modulation Error Ratio, 64 QAM 5.12 MS/s. See ‘Typical Performance Curves’ on page 5 of this datasheet for an example MER vs.
output power relationship.
6. Data corresponds to the typical application circuit and component values shown on page 3 of this datasheet. Parameters shown at
nominal I
CC
= 290 mA unless otherwise noted. I
CC
is the total DC current draw from the V
CC
supply. As shown on page 3, it is distributed to
pins 9 and 12 by balun T2 and pins 10 and 11 directly. Resistor R2 determines the DC voltage of A
BIASA/B
and thereby I
CC
at approximately
0.25 mA/Ω. See page 5 for a typical I
CC
vs. R2 relationship assuming V
CC
= 5 V.
