Product details
Overview
BGY785A,112 from NXP Semiconductors is a hybrid high dynamic range cascode amplifier module in SOT115J package, operating at 24 V DC supply with 18.5 dB typical gain at 750 MHz, −54.5 dB typical CTB distortion, and 4.5 dB noise figure at 50 MHz - deployed as a push-pull RF amplifier in CATV distribution amplifiers.
For engineers reviewing the BGY785A,112 datasheet, BGY785A,112 pinout, BGY785A,112 application, or BGY785A,112 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 40–750 MHz bandwidth, 225–240 mA DC current draw at 24 V, input/output return loss ≥14 dB across band, and ruggedized construction for cable infrastructure headend and node amplification.
Technical Context
The BGY785A,112 implements a push-pull cascode architecture using silicon nitride passivation and gold metallization to sustain high linearity under multi-carrier CATV conditions. It delivers flat gain (±0.3 dB) and low slope (<2 dB cable-equivalent) across 40–750 MHz with 75 Ω input/output impedance matching.
Its design supports operation at VB = 24 V with transient tolerance up to 30 V, and thermal management via aluminum flange mounting (Tmb ≤ +100 °C). Return losses exceed 14 dB from 40–750 MHz at both ports, enabling stable cascade in broadband distribution networks.
Key Specifications

|---|---|
| Frequency Range | 40 MHz to 750 MHz - fully specified performance across full CATV spectrum including DOCSIS 3.1 upstream/downstream bands |
| Power Gain | 18.5 dB typ. at 750 MHz - enables single-stage amplification without cascaded stages in node/hub designs |
| Noise Figure | 4.5 dB typ. at 50 MHz - preserves signal integrity in front-end amplification of weak downstream signals |
| CTB Distortion | −54.5 dB typ. (110 channels, 44 dBmV output) - meets stringent multi-carrier linearity requirements for HFC networks |
| Total Current | 225–240 mA at 24 V - defines thermal load and power supply sizing for 24 V-powered amplifier modules |
| Input/Output Return Loss | ≥14 dB from 40–750 MHz - ensures stable impedance match and minimizes reflections in 75 Ω coaxial systems |
| Supply Transient Tolerance | Up to 30 V - protects against voltage spikes in field-deployed CATV power supplies |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar RF amplifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MACOM MAAM-011130 | 50–1000 MHz bandwidth; 20 dB gain; GaAs pHEMT process; 5 V supply; 110 mA current | Designed for lower-voltage, lower-power distributed amplification; not rated for 24 V CATV infrastructure | Consider for compact, low-power RF modules where 24 V operation and flange-mounting are unnecessary |
| Qorvo QPL9547 | DC–6000 MHz; 22 dB gain; 5 V supply; 70 mA; SOT-363 package; no flange or high-current capability | Targeted at wireless infrastructure and small-cell front ends, not CATV linearity or thermal robustness | Use only in non-CATV broadband applications requiring ultra-wideband coverage and minimal footprint |
Compared with BGY785A,112, MAAM-011130 offers wider bandwidth but lacks 24 V ruggedness and flange thermal mass, while QPL9547 provides GHz-range coverage but cannot meet CATV CTB/CSO requirements or dissipate equivalent power in headend deployments.

FAQ
What is the maximum supply voltage the BGY785A,112 can withstand?
The BGY785A,112 operates nominally at 24 V DC but is rated to withstand supply transients up to 30 V per Absolute Maximum Ratings (IEC 60134). This transient tolerance allows safe operation in CATV power supplies subject to line surges or regulator overshoot, provided average voltage remains at 24 V and thermal limits are observed.
Does the BGY785A,112 require external biasing components?
No, the BGY785A,112 is a fully self-biased hybrid module. It integrates internal bias networks and requires only DC blocking capacitors (input/output), RF chokes on the +VB line, and local decoupling (bulk + ceramic) at Pin 5. No external resistors or potentiometers are needed for quiescent current setting.
What is the thermal mounting requirement for the BGY785A,112?
The BGY785A,112 must be mounted directly to a thermally conductive surface (e.g., aluminum chassis or heatsink) using the two vertical 6-32 UNC mounting holes in its SOT115J flange. Mounting base temperature must remain ≤ +100 °C; thermal interface material with <0.5 °C/W resistance is recommended for sustained 240 mA operation.
Is the BGY785A,112 suitable for DOCSIS 4.0 applications?
The BGY785A,112 is characterized up to 750 MHz and optimized for DOCSIS 3.1 downstream and upstream bands. While it operates within the 5–204 MHz upstream and 108–750 MHz downstream ranges of DOCSIS 4.0, it is not validated for extended spectrum (e.g., 1.2 GHz full-duplex) or new modulation schemes beyond its published CTB/CSO/flatness specs.
How many ground pins does the BGY785A,112 have, and why are they important?
The BGY785A,112 has four dedicated ground terminals (Pins 2, 3, 7, and 8) to minimize ground inductance and ensure stable RF return paths. These enable low-impedance grounding across the full 40–750 MHz band, critical for maintaining input/output return loss >14 dB and preventing oscillation in high-gain cascode configurations.
