Active Splitters

Application:

Three-way Active Power Splitter with Gain Control


Description:

This active splitter from ANADIGICS accepts a balanced RF input in the 50 MHz to 1.1 GHz frequency range and provides three balanced RF outputs with minimal degradation in signal quality. The single-package surface mount device amplifies the input signals using highly linear, low noise amplification stages, and couples the amplified signal to three separate output paths to drive video tuner inputs.

Requiring only a single +5 V supply, the active splitter design is implemented using the ANADIGICS GaAs MESFET process. The surface mount packaging makes the device ideal for use in today's multiple-tuner set-top boxes for Cable TV.

Features:

  • Single Input, Triple Output Design - Three Video Tuner Outputs
  • Wideband Operation: To Above 1 GHz
  • 5 dB Typical Noise Figure at 5 dB Gain
  • Wide Dynamic Range AGC Control, Independent for each Tuner Path
  • High Linearity, Low Distortion
  • Single +5 V Supply
  • Balanced 75 Ω Inputs/Outputs
  • RoHS Compliant/Lead Free
