Rev. 1 — 31 January 2014
Preliminary data sheet
1. Product profile
1.1 General description
The BGU8004 is a Low Noise Amplifier (LNA) for GNSS receiver applications. It comes as
extremely small and thin Wafer Level Chip Scale Package (WLCSP). The BGU8004
requires one external matching inductor.
The BGU8004 adapts itself to the changing environment resulting from co-habitation of
different radio systems in modern cellular handsets. It has been designed for low power
consumption and optimized performance when jamming signals from co-existing cellular
transmitters are present. At low jamming power levels it delivers 17 dB gain at a noise
figure of 0.60 dB. During high jamming power levels, resulting for example from a cellular
transmit burst, it temporarily increases its bias current to improve sensitivity.
1.2 Features and benefits
Covers full GNSS L1 band, from 1559 MHz to 1610 MHz
Noise figure (NF) = 0.60 dB
Gain 17.0 dB
High input 1 dB compression point of 7.5 dBm
High out of band IP3i of 6 dBm
Supply voltage 1.5 V to 3.1 V
Optimized performance at very low 3.4 mA supply current
Power-down mode current consumption < 1 A
Integrated temperature stabilized bias for easy design
Requires only one input matching inductor
Input and output DC decoupled
ESD protection on all pins (HBM > 2 kV)
Integrated matching for the output
Extremely small Wafer Level Chip Scale Package (WLCSP) 0.65 0.44 0.2 mm;
6 solder bumps; 0.22 mm bump pitch
180 GHz transit frequency - SiGe:C technology
1.3 Applications
LNA for GPS, GLONASS, Galileo and Compass (BeiDou) in smart phones, feature
phones, tablet, digital still cameras, digital video cameras, RF front-end modules,
complete GNSS modules and personal health applications.

Warning: due to internal ESD diode protection, the applied DC voltage should not exceed VCC + 0.6 V and shall not exceed 5.0 V in
order to avoid excess current.

Preliminary data sheet
Suitability for use — NXP Semiconductors products are not designed,
authorized or warranted to be suitable for use in life support, life-critical or
safety-critical systems or equipment, nor in applications where failure or
malfunction of an NXP Semiconductors product can reasonably be expected
to result in personal injury, death or severe property or environmental
damage. NXP Semiconductors and its suppliers accept no liability for
inclusion and/or use of NXP Semiconductors products in such equipment or
applications and therefore such inclusion and/or use is at the customer’s own
risk.
Applications — Applications that are described herein for any of these
products are for illustrative purposes only. NXP Semiconductors makes no
representation or warranty that such applications will be suitable for the
specified use without further testing or modification.
Customers are responsible for the design and operation of their applications
and products using NXP Semiconductors products, and NXP Semiconductors
accepts no liability for any assistance with applications or customer product
design. It is customer’s sole responsibility to determine whether the NXP
Semiconductors product is suitable and fit for the customer’s applications and
products planned, as well as for the planned application and use of
customer’s third party customer(s). Customers should provide appropriate
design and operating safeguards to minimize the risks associated with their
applications and products.
NXP Semiconductors does not accept any liability related to any default,
damage, costs or problem which is based on any weakness or default in the
customer’s applications or products, or the application or use by customer’s
third party customer(s). Customer is responsible for doing all necessary
testing for the customer’s applications and products using NXP
Semiconductors products in order to avoid a default of the applications and
the products or of the application or use by customer’s third party
customer(s). NXP does not accept any liability in this respect.
Limiting values — Stress above one or more limiting values (as defined in
the Absolute Maximum Ratings System of IEC 60134) will cause permanent
damage to the device. Limiting values are stress ratings only and (proper)
operation of the device at these or any other conditions above those given in
the Recommended operating conditions section (if present) or the
Characteristics sections of this document is not warranted. Constant or
repeated exposure to limiting values will permanently and irreversibly affect
the quality and reliability of the device.
Terms and conditions of commercial sale — NXP Semiconductors
products are sold subject to the general terms and conditions of commercial
