Infineon’s RF and Protection Devices for Consumer Applications
A generic block diagram of a RF front-end is shown below. The exact circuit however varies from application to
application. Let us try to understand this front-end system. The whole system can be divided into transmit
section and receive section which are connected with an antenna. At the antenna, an ESD protection diode is
essential as the antenna is exposed to external world and the most susceptible to ESD strikes. Placing the
protection diode close to the antenna protects the entire circuit. The antenna is connected to a switch to toggle
between transmit and receive functionalities.

The filter behind the antenna in the Rx chain allows only the frequency of interest to pass through to the rest of
the circuit. The low noise amplifier helps reducing the overall noise figure of the system thereby boosting receive
sensitivity. A 2
nd
LNA is also required in some applications requiring higher gain. Mixer helps to down convert
the received frequency to the IF band, which is then used to process the received signal in the RF transceiver.
On the Tx side, the signal from the transceiver is fed to the mixer to up-convert, then to a band-pass filter to
suppress the unwanted non-linear products. The buffer amplifier amplifies the signal to a certain level, after
which the power amplifier boosts it to suitable power level for transmission. The power amplifier operating in the
non-linear mode generates a lot of spurious signals which are filtered out using a high-Q band-pass filter to fulfill
requirements on EMI.
All these circuit elements have different figures of merit based on which the right device can be chosen.
However with any existing technology and design methodology there are numerous possibilities to trade
different parameters of the component. With its eminent application know how, Infineon offers various solutions
for the same application suiting requirements of different system designers / customers.

Wi-Fi Wireless LAN (WLAN, IEEE802.11a/b/g/n/ac) and WiMAX
(IEEE802.16e)
The Wi-Fi function is one of the most important connectivity functions in notebooks, smart phones and tablet
PCs. Wi-Fi according to IEEE802.11b/g/n at 2.4 GHz is widely implemented over years. Due to the too cloudy
WLAN network at 2.4 GHz, the Wi-Fi applications at 5 to 6 GHz according to IEEE802.11a are gaining focus.
Not only using Wi-Fi for the high data rate access to the internet, but also different applications like home
entertainment with wireless high-quality multimedia signal transmission such as Wireless HDMI in TV-sets,
DVD-player,... and Wireless@Home such as home networking notebooks, mass data storages and printers,
implement 5 to 6 GHz Wi-Fi features into their system to offer high-speed wireless connection.
WiMAX (IEEE802.16e) at 2.3 to 2.7 GHz, 3.3 to 3.7 GHz and 5.8 GHz plays an important role in certain areas
for fast setup of high data rate last mile wireless communication infrastructures where no 3G networks are
available in emerging markets or countryside. WiMAX is designed for high data rate wireless communication up
to 70 Mbps which is suitable for fixed point-to-point (P2P) communication and also for portable or mobile
connections.
For these kinds of high-speed, high data rate wireless communication standards, it is essential to ensure the
quality of the link path. Major performance criteria of these equipment’s have to be fulfilled: sensitivity, strong
signal capability and interference immunity with proper link budget.
Infineon offers a wide product portfolio for both applications: Wi-Fi and WiMAX. It includes transistor & MMIC
low noise amplifiers, power detection diodes and pin diode switches.
In addition, Infineon also offers ESD protection diodes. The ESD protection diodes ESD0P2RF and ESP0P1RF
series have a capacitance value of only 0.2 pF or 0.1 pF and can protect up to 8 kV contact discharge according
to IEC 61000-4-2 standard.

Satellite Receivers - Low Noise Block (LNB)
LNB is a part of satellite TV antenna. It is fixed at the feed point of the parabolic dish antenna. It collects signal
from the waveguide attached to the feed point. The signal received from the satellite is at very high frequency
e.g. C-band or Ku-Band and very low signal strength. The purpose of the LNB is to amplify and down-convert
this signal to an IF signal to be able to process at the receiver. The amplification is realized using multiple low
noise amplifier (LNA) stages. The most important figure of merit of a LNB is its noise figure and this is primarily
determinated by the first stage LNA, which is normally a HEMT device with extremely low noise figures at these
high frequencies. For the second or third LNA stage, SiGe RF transistor is an ideal device. The significantly
filtered and amplified signal is then fed to mixer to generates the IF signal. It moves after filtering and amplifying
into the satellite set-top box receiver for further processing. The LNB is required to amplify the received signal
by about 50 to 60 dB for a good quality TV reception accompanied by ~1 dB noise figure.
There are two main frequency bands used for satellite TV broadcasting: C-Band at 3.4 to 4.2 GHz range and
Ku-Band at 10.7 to 12.75 GHz range. Based on the frequency of operation, the local oscillators (LO) of the
mixer is determined to have the same IF band signal. The satellite signal uses vertical and horizontal linear
polarization and therefore there are two receive paths with identical characteristics.
Infineon offers Si-based solutions for LNB such as the second stage LNA with SiGe: C RF transistors with low
noise figure and high gain, SiGe transistors or Schottky diode mixers, PIN diode switch matrix and IF LNA
stages. Infineon recommended devices are tabulated in the next pages.

Global Navigation Satellite System
Global Satellite Navigation Systems or GNSS are among the fastest growing businesses in the semiconductor
industry. Today, GNSS is much more than the well-known GPS, which was introduced for civilian use more than
a decade ago. Nations around the world are working on their own navigation satellite systems for strategic
reasons and also to offer improved user experience. Today, two GNSS systems are operational: the United
States GPS and the Russian GLONASS. The Galileo positioning system being developed by the European
Union is expected to be functional by 2014 and Chinese COMPASS is also expected to follow soon.
From a civilian usage point, additional systems added to GNSS bring with them the advantages of increased
satellite signal reception, increased coverage, higher precision and the facility for additional features such as
search and rescue (SAR). The most important market segments since 2008 are personal navigation devices
(PND) and GPS/GLONASS enabled mobile phones. The architecture and the performance of the so-called RF
front-end is the key contributor to fulfill strict requirements of the GPS/GLONASS system, because it consists of
the whole line-up between the GNSS antenna and the integrated GNSS chipset. The main challenges for the
growing GNSS-enabled mobile phone market are to achieve high sensitivity and high immunity against
interference of cellular signals driven by government regulations for safety and emergency reasons, for
example, in the US and Japan. This means reception for GPS/GLONASS signals at very low power levels down
to less than -160 dBm in mobile phones in the vicinity of co-existing high power cellular signals. In addition,
excellent ESD robustness characteristics and low power consumption for long battery usage duration are
mandatory features for portable and mobile phones.
Infineon Technologies is a market leader in GPS and other GNSS LNAs and works closely with various
reference designs for navigation applications in PND and cellular markets. Infineon Technologies offers a
complete product portfolio to all customers designing high performance flexible RF front-end solutions for
GNSS:
- Low Noise Amplifiers (LNA): consisting of a wide range of products like high performance MMICs as well
as cost effective and high end RF transistors
- Front-End Module (FEM): Infineon offers the world’s smallest GPS/GLONASS FEMs with LNAs and
band-pass filter(s) integrated into a single tiny package with well-optimized performance for navigation in
mobile phones
- Transient Voltage Suppression (TVS) Diodes: protecting GNSS antenna reliably up to 20 kV
- RF Switches: allow for diversity architecture with active antenna
28
RF and Protection Devices
Application Guide for Consumer Applications
Infineon’s GNSS LNA and FEM products have excellent features including low noise figure, high gain, high
linearity, high levels of ESD protection and low current consumption to fulfill customer’s needs to satisfy the
increasing requirements of GNSS systems. Infineon’s latest GNSS LNA products covering all current and future
GNSS systems include, BGA915N7 with very low noise figure and high out-of-band (OoB) IP3 to enhance the
interference immunity, BGA231L7 supporting drop-in approach for the major mobile phone platforms.
BGA925L6 as one of the smallest GNSS LNA worldwide with low noise figure and high out-of-band
performance, and BGA725L6 as one of the smallest GNSS LNA with high gain and low noise.
According to various GPS/GLONASS antenna designs in mobile phones, new GPS/GLONASS FEM products
are released with the following two topologies:
- SAW-Filter/LNA/SAW-Filter Topology: it offers the most compact integration of the whole GPS frontend into one small package and simplifies the system design.
-> BGM781N11
- SAW-Filter/LNA Topology: it enables system design with flexibility to place the GPS/GLONASS antenna
without degradation of the GPS/GLONASS performance.
-> BGM732L16, BGM1032N7, BGM1033N7 and BGM1034N7
All Infineon GNSS FEM products offer an ESD robustness at the RF input pin higher than 6kV according to
IEC61000-4-2 contact discharge standard.
Please visit our website www.infineon.com/gps and www.infineon.com/nav.frontend for more details on products
for navigation function in mobile phones and portable devices or contact your local Infineon representative.

Cellular Modems for Data Communication
A general block diagram of a modern mobile phone front-end of 2G/2.5G and 3G/3.5G/4G modem
(GSM/EDGE/UMTS/LTE/TDS-CDMA/TDS-LTE) is shown in the block diagram below.
Infineon Technologies is one of the leading companies with broad product portfolio to offer high performance RF
front-end components for various mobile and wireless applications by using industry standard silicon process.
For the mobile phone front-end, Infineon offers various RF CMOS primary antenna switches, diversity antenna
switches, as well as MMIC SiGe LNAs and Schottky diode power detectors.
Infineon’s RF CMOS switches are widely used for band selection/switching or diversity switching at the antenna.
PIN diodes can be used for switching if there is a requirement on much lower IMD generation in the mobile
phone. Low barrier power detection Schottky diodes are used for precise output power control after the power
amplifier.
Our SiGe MMIC LNAs with their excellent low noise figure enhance the sensitivity of the RF modem by several
dB and offer system layout flexibility by suppressing noise contribution from losses of signal lines and from the
SAW filters as well as the receiver.
For detailed information about our product portfolio for cellular modems and their applications, please refer to
our Application Guide – Part 1: Mobile Communication. Or you can contact Infineon’s Regional Offices or one of
Infineon Worldwide Distribution Partners in your area to get all the support you might need.

RF Function Blocks with Discrete Devices
11.1
Driver Amplifiers
Driver amplifier or also known as pre-power amplifier is an important functional block in systems requiring high
power output. The power amplifier requires a certain power level of the input signal to operate in the right mode,
which in some cases cannot be delivered by the transceiver IC. In this case, a driver amplifier is required to
provide the right signal level to the power amplifier (PA). Driver amplifiers are generally operated in class-A
mode to enable high linearity and high gain, thereby keeping the spurious signals generated by the PA low, by
reducing intermodulation products. Class-A amplifiers are also the right choice for broadband operation at low
power levels.
Infineon offers several RF transistors to be used as driver amplifiers with different current capabilities, linearity,
gain and output powers as in the table below.
Please visit our website www.infineon.com/driveramplifiers or www.infineon.com/rftransistors for more details on
products for driver amplifier applications or contact Infineon’s Regional Offices or one of Infineon Worldwide
Distribution Partners in your area to get all the support you might need.

Broadband Amplifier
Broadband amplifiers are easy to use solutions for the system designer as they cover a wide frequency range.
They are useful in two scenarios:
- Using the device for broadband operation
- Usability of the same device for different application frequencies
Applications like CATV and Digital TV require broadband operation of their components. Infineon offers three
MMIC LNAs for TV application with varying current consumption and linearity, as shown in the table below.
They are LNAs with Darlington circuits offering low noise figure and high linearity. These LNAs can be used for
frequencies up to 6 GHz and matched to 50 Ohm at input and output.
In additions, Infineon offers another MMIC LNA BGB741L7ESD which is also a broadband amplifier that can be
used up to 6 GHz with no external matching required. It has an integrated feedback through which it delivers
stable, broadband operation with in-built temperature compensation. Please refer to the application note at the
following link to gain deeper insight into BGB741L7ESD used as LNA for FM, VHF & UHF TV, WiMAX
applications.

Interface Protection
In today’s electronics, being faster, smaller and smarter creates profitability by enabling new and better
applications. The race to pack more and more high-speed functions in a smaller space accelerates
miniaturization roadmaps. However, the downscale of semiconductor chips together with the increase of doping
levels results in a dramatic reduction of the thin gate oxide layer and the width of the pn-junction in
semiconductor chips. This, in combination with greater circuit population, increases the susceptibility of the
semiconductor chip to ESD.
The subsequent failures of the electronic equipment can be noticed as hard failures, latent damage or
temporary malfunction. Hard failures are easier to spot, and in general require the failed device to be replaced.
In the best case the failure will be detected before the equipment leaves the factory and customers will never
receive it. Failures leading to temporary malfunction of equipment or latent failures are quite common and very
difficult to detect or trace in the field. Temporary malfunctions may go unreported but can result in negative
customer impressions as the user may need to reset the equipment. A product recall for swapping or repairing
due to ESD failures may cause the company a cost several times higher than the cost of the device itself.
An efficient system design normally includes the implementation of a shielded chassis in order to minimize ESD
risks. Nevertheless, ESD strikes represent a permanent threat to device reliability as they can easily find a way
to bypass the shielded chassis and be injected into the IC/ASICs. Connectors and antennas exposed to the
outside world are possible entry points of electrostatic discharges generated by end users. The only way to
ensure stable operation and maximum reliability at the system level is to ensure that equipment is properly
protected against electrostatic discharge and transients by an external protection device.
Infineon’s Value Proposition
