MGA-65606 Low Noise Amplifier with switchable Bypass/Shutdown Mode in Low Profile Package Data Sheet Description Features Avago Technologies’ MGA-65606 is an economical, easyto-use GaAs MMIC Low Noise Amplifier (LNA) with Bypass/ Shutdown mode. The LNA has low noise and high linearity achieved through the use of Avago Technologies’ proprietary 0.25 m GaAs Enhancement-mode pHEMT process. The Bypass/Shutdown mode enables the LNA to be bypassed during high input signal power and reduce current consumption. It is housed in a low profile 2.0 x 1.3 x 0.5 mm3 6-pin Ultra Thin Package. The compact footprint and low profile coupled with low noise, high linearity make the MGA-65606 an ideal choice as a low noise amplifier for mobile and CPE receivers in the WiMAX and WLL (2.5 – 4) GHz band.
