3 Description

The TRF0206-SP is a very high performance,

radiation hardened RF amplifier optimized for radio

frequency (RF) applications. This device is ideal

for ac-coupled applications that require a singleended

to differential conversion when driving an

analog-to-digital converter (ADC) such as the high

performance ADC12DJ3200QML-SP. The on-chip

matching components simplify printed circuit board

PCB) implementation and provide the highest

performance over the usable bandwidth. The

device is fabricated in Texas Instruments’ advanced

complementary BiCMOS process and is available in a

space-qualified, LCCC package.

The device operates on a 3.3 V single-rail supply.

A power-down feature is also available for power

savings.
