AH312 / ECP200G
2 Watt, High Linearity InGaP HBT Amplifier Product Information
Product Features
• 400 – 2300 MHz
• +33 dBm P1dB
• +51 dBm Output IP3
• 18 dB Gain @ 900 MHz
• 11 dB Gain @ 1960 MHz
• Single Positive Supply (+5V)
• Lead-free/green/RoHS-compliant
SOIC-8 SMT Pkg.
Applications
• Final stage amplifiers for Repeaters
• Mobile Infrastructure
• Defense / Homeland Security
Product Description
The AH312 / ECP200 is a high dynamic range driver
amplifier in a low-cost surface mount package. The
InGaP/GaAs HBT is able to achieve high performance for
various narrowband-tuned application circuits with up to
+49 dBm OIP3 and +33 dBm of compressed 1dB power. It
is housed in a lead-free/green/RoHS-compliant SOIC-8
package. All devices are 100% RF and DC tested.
The AH312 / ECP200 is targeted for use as a driver
amplifier in wireless infrastructure where high linearity and
medium power is required. An internal active bias allows
the AH312 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.

1. Test conditions unless otherwise noted: 25ºC, +5V Vsupply, 2140 MHz, in tuned application circuit.
2. 3OIP measured with two tones at an output power of +17 dBm/tone separated by 1 MHz. The
suppression on the largest IM3 product is used to calculate the 3OIP using a 2:1 rule.
3. This corresponds to the quiescent current or operating current under small-signal conditions into
pins 6, 7, and 8. It is expected that the current can increase by an additional 200 mA at P1dB. Pin
1 is used as a reference voltage for the internal biasing circuitry. It is expected that Pin 1 will pull
22mA of current when used with a series bias resistor of R1=15Ω. (ie. total device current
typically will be 822 mA.)

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 – 3000 MHz, with markers placed at 0.5 – 3.0 GHz in 0.5 GHz increments.

AH312 / ECP200G
2 Watt, High Linearity InGaP HBT Amplifier Product Information
Application Note: Reduced Bias Configurations
The AH312 / ECP200 can be configured to be operated with lower bias current by varying the bias-adjust resistor – R1. The
recommended circuit configurations shown previously in this datasheet have the device operating in Class A operation.
Lowering the current has little effect on the gain, OIP3, and P1dB performance of the device, but will slightly lower the
ACLR/ACPR performance of the device as shown below. An example of the measured data below represents the AH312 /
ECP200 measured and configured for 2.14 GHz applications. It is expected that variation of the bias current for other
frequency applications will produce similar performance results.

AH312 / ECP200G
2 Watt, High Linearity InGaP HBT Amplifier Product Information
AH312-S8 (SOIC-8 Package) Mechanical Information
This package may contain lead-bearing materials. The plating material on the leads is SnPb.

Thermal Specifications
Parameter Rating
Operating Case Temperature -40 to +85° C
Thermal Resistance, Rth (1) 17.5° C / W
Junction Temperature, Tjc (2) 155° C
Notes:
1. The thermal resistance is referenced from the hottest part
of the junction to the ground slug underneath the device.
2. This corresponds to the typical biasing condition of
+5V, 800 mA at an 85° C case temperature. A
minimum MTTF of 1 million hours is achieved for
junction temperatures below 247° C. Tjc is a function
of the voltage at pins 6 and 7 and the current applied
to pins 6, 7, and 8 and can be calculated by:
Tjc = Tcase + Rth * Vcc * Icc
Product Marking
The component will be marked with an
“AH312-S8” designator with an alphanumeric
lot code on the top surface of the package.
Tape and reel specifications for this part are
located on the website in the “Application
Notes” section.
ESD / MSL Information
ESD Rating: Class 1B
Value: Passes between 500 and 1000V
Test: Human Body Model (HBM)
Standard: JEDEC Standard JESD22-A114
MSL Rating: Level 3 at +235° C convection reflow
Standard: JEDEC Standard J-STD-020
Mounting Config. Notes
1. A heatsink underneath the area of the PCB for the mounted device
is strictly required for proper thermal operation. Damage to the
device can occur without the use of one.
2. Ground / thermal vias are 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”).
3. Add as much copper as possible to inner and outer layers near the
part to ensure optimal thermal performance.
4. 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.
5. Do not put solder mask on the backside of the PC board in the
region where the board contacts the heatsink.
6. RF trace width depends upon the PC board material and
construction.
7. Use 1 oz. Copper minimum.
8. All dimensions are in millimeters (inches). Angles are in degrees.
