Low Noise Amplifier

The MAAL-010705 is a high dynamic range single stage MMIC LNA with excellent linearity and low noise figure designed for operation from 0.5 to 1.6 GHz. The LNA is packaged in an RoHS compliant leadless 2 mm 8-lead PDFN package. This MMIC has an integrated active bias circuit allowing direct connection to +3 V voltage supply and minimizing variation over temperature and process. The bias current and gain can be set with external resistors to allow the user to customize the current and gain value to fit the application. The MAAL-010705 offers less than 0.7 dB noise figure, more than 32 dBm OIP3 and 20 dB input return loss. The excellent input match, low noise figure and high OIP3 along with the flexibility of setting current and gain make this LNA ideal for 3G and 4G cellular infrastructure applications. For optimum performance above 1.6 GHz the MAAL-010706 is recommended. The MAAL-010705 and MAAL-010706 share the package type and footprint.
