Low Noise Amplifier

The MAAL-010705-CR10 is a high dynamic range single stage MMIC LNA with excellent linearity and low noise figure designed for operation from 0.5 to 3 GHz. The LNA is packaged in an RoHS compliant, 8-lead hermetically sealed ceramic package. This MMIC has an integrated active bias circuit allowing direct connection to 4 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-CR10 offers less than 0.7 dB noise figure, more than 32 dBm OIP3 and 20 dB output return loss. The excellent match, low noise figure and high OIP3 along with the flexibility of setting current and gain make this LNA ideal UHF, L, and S-band satellite applications.
