Amplifier is suitable for cable set top boxes, cable modems, xDSL modems and xDSL central office line cards. The ADL5531 is a broadband, fixed-gain, linear amplifier that operates at frequencies up to 500 MHz. The device can be used in a wide variety of equipment, including cellular, satellite, broadband, and instrumentation equipment.

The ADL5531 provides a gain of 20 dB, which is stable over frequency, temperature, power supply, and from device to device. This amplifier is single-ended and internally matched to 50ohm. Only input/output ac coupling capacitors, power supply decoupling capacitors, and external inductors are required for operation.

The ADL5531 consumes 100 mA on a single 5 V supply and is fully specified for operation from -40°C to +85°C.
