Qorvo's SPA2318Z is a high efficiency GaAs Heterojunction Bipolar Transistor (HBT) amplifier housed in a low-cost surface-mountable plastic package. These HBT amplifiers are fabricated using molecular beam epitaxial growth technology which produces reliable and consistent performance from wafer to wafer and lot to lot. This product is specifically designed for use as a driver amplifier for infrastructure equipment in the 1960MHz and 2140MHz bands. Its high linearity makes it an ideal choice for multi-carrier and digital applications. The matte tin finish on the lead-free package utilizes a post annealing process to mitigate tin whisker formation and is RoHS compliant per EU Directive 2002/95. This package is also manufactured with green molding compounds that contain no antimony trioxide or halogenated fire retardants.
