The amplifier is ideal for WiMAX & C-band Radio receivers operating between 4.8 and 6.0 GHz and provides 1.5 dB noise figure, 15 dB of gain and +26 dBm IP3 from a single supply of +5V @ 42mA. Input and output return losses are 12 and 14 dB respectively with no external matching components required. A single control line (0/Vdd) is used to switch between LNA mode and a low loss bypass mode which reduces the current consumption to 10 µA.
