HXG-242+: LTE Performance vs Output Power

LTE Base Station MMIC Amplifier

The HXG-242+ is a High Dynamic Range MSiP (Mini-Circuits System in Package) Amplifier designed over a focused frequency range specifically for applications which require high linear performance, advanced digital communications systems such as LTE which require excellent ACLR suppression and low EVM.

The HXG-242+ provides typically +44 dBm OIP3 which translates to high linear performance in multi-carrier and complex signal environments such as LTE supporting ACLR_1 Measurements of better than -60 dBc at +10 dBm output.

The HXG-242+ is characterized using a high peak-toaverage ratio OFDM signal used for next generation LTE within the 700MHz Downlink Band.
