MGA-31289
High-Gain, High-Linearity Driver Amplifier
Application Note 5488
Introduction
The MGA-31289 is a highly linear enhancement-mode
pseudomorphic
(E-pHEMT) amplifier with a frequency range extending
from 1.5GHz to 3GHz. The MGA-31289 is a complement
of the Avago high-gain and high-linearity driver amplifier
series as shown in Table 1. MGA-31289 is a 0.25 W mono-
lithic microwave integrated circuit (MMIC) housed in
a standard SOT-89 package – the preferred industrial
package for low-power driver amplifiers due to its ex-
ceptional thermal dissipation. This device features an
excellent Input Return Loss (IRL) and good Output Return
Loss (ORL) achieved through the use of internal input
match and output pre-match circuits. This reduces the
number of external components and the complexity of
the manufacturing process.
MGA-31289 operates with a +5 V power supply and draws
a nominal current of 120 mA at room temperature. The
device delivers an excellent third-order Output Intercept

Point (OIP3) of 42 dBm, Small Signal Gain (SSGain) of
19 dB and an Output 1 dB Gain Compression (OP1dB) of
23 dBm. These exceptional performance specifications
are achieved through Avago Technologies’ proprietary
0.25 Pm GaAs E-pHEMT process, making MGA-31289 a
good candidate for high-gain and high-linearity applica-
tions such as Time Division Long Term Evolution (TD-LTE)
and Base Transceiver Station (BTS) repeater modules. The
enhancement mode technology provides superior high-
linearity performance that allows direct DC grounding
at the source pin and the use of an easy-to-build single
polarity supply [1].
Besides providing typical application guidelines for issues
such as DC bias and impedance matching, this application
note focuses on the effect of improving the output return
loss towards linearity performance, especially the third-
order intercept point (IP3). The method will be systemati-
cally discussed with the aid of a 1.6 GHz design example.
