AM50-0011 High Dynamic Range LNA 800 - 1000 MHz Features n n n n n V 2.00 Functional Schematic Ideal for Base Station Applications High Gain Low Noise Figure High Input IP3 Single +5 V Supply Voltage VDD L2 C3 VBC OUT Description M/A-COM’s AM50-0011 is a high dynamic range, GaAs MMIC, low noise amplifier in a low-cost SOT-26 package. It employs external matching to obtain optimum noise figure and intercept performance. The AM50-0011 may be operated with supply voltages of +5 V. GND GND C1 C2 IN GND L1 The AM50-0011 is ideally suited for use where low noise figure, high gain, and high dynamic range are required. Typical applications included receiver front ends in AMPS, GSM and ETACS base stations. It may also be used as an IF amplifier in certain other communication systems. M/A-COM fabricates the AM50-0011 using a low-cost 0.5micron gate E-D SAGFET GaAs process that features full passivation for reliability and performance. M/A-COM fully tests all assembled GaAs IC’s for RF and DC performance against guaranteed specifications using automated RF IC handling and test equipment before shipping to customers.
