The PC board layout accommodates all SMT En1 Low components on the circuit side (see Circuit Side Component En1 High Placement View). LNA Input/Output The LNA input impedance is the base of a common emitter cascode amplifier. The LNA output is the collector of the cascode stage and it is loaded with a series resistor of 400 Ω and a capacitor of 10 pF to provide stability. Digitally Programmable Bias/Enable The LNA is enabled by a 2 bit (En1 and En2) programmable bias circuit. The internal circuit shows the comparator circuit which programs the internal regulator. The logic table below shows the bias and typical performance.

In this circuit a series inductor of 5.6 nH is used to match the input and a shunt inductor of 8.2 nH which also serves as an RFC and a series capacitor of 0.9 p is used to match the LNA output to 50 Ω load impedance. It may be desirable to use a RF ceramic or SAW filter after the LNA when driving a mixer to provide image frequency rejection. The image filter is selected based on cost, size and performance tradeoffs. Typical RF filters have 3.0 to 5.0 dB insertion loss. Interface matching between the RF input, RF filter and the mixer is shown in Application Circuit and the Component Placement View. A typical application at 1900 MHz yields 13 dB gain and 2.7 dB noise figure. In this circuit a series inductor of 5.6 nH and a series capacitor of 1.0 pF are used to match the input and a shut inductor of 2.0 nH and a series capacitor of 2.0 pF are used to match the LNA output to 50 Ω load impedance. f = 900 mHz ICC/Gain En2 Low En2 High En1 Low 0 mA/–22 dB 1.2 mA/9.2 dB En1 High 3.4 mA/13 dB 8.2 mA/17 dB Figure 2.
