2.4GHz amplifier driving antenna

wanz9992000 on May 1, 2015

Hi,

I am wishing to use a PA to drive a antenna.

My input is about +4dBm @ 2.4GHz, and I wish to get maximum of 20dBm from the PA to drive an antenna.

Is ADL5530 suitable for driving an antenna? What other Analog parts would you recommend?

Thanks a lot!

The ADL5530 has an upper frequency limit of 1000MHz so it's not suitable for the application described above. Take a look at ADL5602, HMC475 or HMC636, which are internally matched gain blocks. Lots of options depending on what the system requirements are. Take a look at the Analog Devices RF Amplifiers parametric table below:
