The ADL5601 is a broadband, 15 dB linear amplifier that operates at frequencies up to 4.0 GHz. The device can be used in a wide variety of cellular, cable television (CATV), military, and instrumentation equipment. The ADL5601 provides the highest dynamic range available from an internally matched gain block.
The ADL5601 is a 15 dB linear RF/IF gain block that operates from 50 MHz up to 4 GHz. It is suited for cellular, CATV, military and instrumentation equipment and offers the highest dynamic range among internally matched gain blocks.
Key specifications include a 50 MHz‑4 GHz frequency range, typical gain around 15 dB, low noise figure (~3.8 dB), high OIP3 (up to 43 dBm), and a single‑supply 5 V operation in a thermally efficient SOT‑89 package.
