Product Description
The AH118 is a high dynamic range driver amplifier in a
low-cost surface mount package. The InGaP/GaAs HBT is
able to achieve high performance across a broad range with
+40.5 dBm OIP3 and +24.7 dBm of compressed 1dB
power. The AH118 is available in a lead-free/green/RoHS-
compliant SOT-89 package. All devices are 100% RF and
DC tested.
The AH118 is targeted for use as a driver amplifier in
wireless infrastructure where high linearity and medium
power is required. Internal biasing allows the AH118 to
maintain high linearity over temperature and operate
directly off a single +5V supply. This combination makes
the device an excellent candidate for transceiver line cards
in current and next generation multi-carrier 3G base
stations.

Notes:
The gain for the unmatched device in 50 ohm system is shown as the trace in black color. For a tuned circuit for a particular frequency,
it is expected that actual gain will be higher, up to the maximum stable gain. The maximum stable gain is shown in the dashed red line.
The impedance plots are shown from 50 – 6000 MHz, with markers placed at 0.5 – 6.0 GHz in 0.5 GHz increments.

AH118-89G Mechanical Information
This package is lead-free/Green/RoHS-compliant. It is compatible with both lead-free (maximum 260 °C reflow temperature) and leaded
(maximum 245 °C reflow temperature) soldering processes. The plating material on the leads is NiPdAu.

Thermal Specifications
Parameter Rating
Operating Case Temperature (1) -40 to +85 °C
Thermal Resistance (2), Rth 92 °C / W
Junction Temperature (3), Tj 159 °C
Notes:
1. The amplifier can be op erated at 105 °C case temperature for up to 1000
hours over its lifetime without degradation in performance and will not
degrade device operation at the recommended maximum 85 °C case
temperature for the rest of its lifetime.
2. The thermal resistance is referenced from the junction-to-case at a case
temperature of 85 °C.
3. This corresponds to the typical biasing condition of +5V, 160 mA at an
85°C case temperature. A minimum MTTF of 1 million hours is achieved
for junction temperatures below 247 °C.
Product Marking
The component will be marked with an
“AH118G” designator with an alphanumeric
lot code on the top surface of the package.
The obsolete tin-lead package is marked with
an “AH118” or “E099” designator followed
by an alphanumeric lot code.
Tape and reel specifications for this part are
located on the website in the “Application
Notes” section.
MSL / ESD Rating
ESD Rating: Class 1A
Value: Passes between 250 and 500V
Test: Human Body Model (HBM)
Standard: JEDEC Standard JESD22-A114
MSL Rating: Level 3 at +260 °C convection reflow
Standard: JEDEC Standard J-STD-020
Mounting Config. Notes
1. Ground / thermal vias ar e critical for the proper performance of
this device. Vias should use a .35mm (#80 / .0135”) diameter
drill and have a final plated thru diameter of .25 mm (.010”).
2. Add as much copper as possible to inner and outer layers near
the part to ensure optimal thermal performance.
3. Mounting screws can be added near the part to fasten the board
to a heatsink. Ensure that the ground / thermal via region
contacts the heatsink.
4. Do not put solder mask on the backside of the PC board in the
region where the board contacts the heatsink.
5. RF trace width depends upon the PC board material and
construction.
6. Use 1 oz. Copper minimum.
7. All dimensions are in millimeters (inches). Angles are in
degrees.
