The MAX2056 general-purpose, high-performance variable-gain amplifier (VGA) is designed to operate in the 800MHz to 1000MHz frequency range- . This device Features
15.5d B of gain, 4.5d B of noise figure, and an output 1d B pression point of 23.5d Bm. The MAX2056 also provides an exceptionally high OIP3 level of 39d Bm, which is maintained over the entire attenuation range. In addition, the on-chip analog attenuators yield infinite control and high attenuation accuracy over selectable 22d B or 44d B control ranges. Each of these Features makes the MAX2056 an ideal VGA for cellular band GSM, cdma2000®, W-CDMA, and i DEN® transmitter and power amplifier AGC circuits. The MAX2056 is pin patible with the MAX2057 1700MHz to 2500MHz VGA, making this family of amplifiers ideal for applications where a mon PC board layout is used for both frequency bands. The MAX2056 operates from a single +5V supply and is available in a pact 36-pin thin QFN package (6mm x 6mm x 0.8mm) with an exposed pad. Electrical performance is guaranteed over the extended -40°C to +85°C temperature range.
