The AD8328ARQ-REEL is a high-performance IC component designed for use in wideband CATV distribution systems and other applications requiring a variable gain amplifier. This device offers excellent distortion performance and provides a wide dynamic range, making it suitable for various signal conditioning and RF amplification tasks.
The key features of the AD8328ARQ-REEL include a fully differential signal path, which ensures high linearity, low noise, and low distortion. It operates within a wide frequency range, from 5 MHz to 400 MHz, allowing for versatile application possibilities. The gain of the amplifier can be adjusted over a 32 dB range using a control voltage, enabling flexible signal amplitude control.
The IC component also incorporates an internal gain-setting resistor matrix, eliminating the need for external resistors and simplifying the overall circuit design. It features a fixed output common-mode voltage, which improves system linearity and reduces distortion.
Additionally, the AD8328ARQ-REEL includes a shutdown mode for power savings and protection against overvoltage or undervoltage conditions. It has a fast disable/enable time, allowing for rapid response in system operations. The device operates from a single power supply of 5 V and provides excellent power supply rejection ratio (PSRR).
The AD8328ARQ-REEL comes in a small form factor, 16-lead QSOP package, offering space-saving benefits in system designs
