BGU8H1UK
SiGe:C Low Noise Amplifier MMIC for LTE
Rev. 1 — 19 May 2015
Product data sheet
1. Product profile
1.1 General description
The BGU8H1UK is a Low Noise Amplifier (LNA) for LTE receiver applications. It comes as
an extremely small and thin Wafer Level Chip Scale Package (WLCSP). The BGU8H1UK
requires one external matching inductor.
The BGU8H1UK 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 optimal performance. At low jamming power levels it delivers 16 dB gain
at a noise figure of 0.9 dB. During high power levels, it temporarily increases its bias
current to improve sensitivity.
The BGU8H1UK is optimized for 2300 MHz to 2690 MHz.
1.2 Features and benefits
Operating frequency from 2300 MHz to 2690 MHz
Noise figure (NF) = 0.9 dB
Gain = 16 dB
High input 1 dB compression point of 5 dBm
High in band IP3i of 3 dBm
Supply voltage 1.5 V to 3.1 V
Self shielding package concept
Integrated supply decoupling capacitor
Optimized performance at a supply current of 4.6 mA
Power-down mode current consumption < 1 A
Integrated temperature stabilized bias for easy design
Require only one input matching inductor
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 LTE reception in smart phones, feature phones, tablet PCs and RF front-end
modules.

Product 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
sale, as published at http://www.nxp.com/profile/terms, unless otherwise
agreed in a valid written individual agreement. In case an individual
agreement is concluded only the terms and conditions of the respective
agreement shall apply. NXP Semiconductors hereby expressly objects to
applying the customer’s general terms and conditions with regard to the
purchase of NXP Semiconductors products by customer.
No offer to sell or license — Nothing in this document may be interpreted or
construed as an offer to sell products that is open for acceptance or the grant,
conveyance or implication of any license under any copyrights, patents or
other industrial or intellectual property rights.
