STANFORD SLX-2043

Advanced Data Sheet
Product Description
The Stanford Microdevices’ SLX-2043 is a low noise amplifier module operating in the 1700 - 2500 MHz frequency
band. This device has been optimized to serve high linearity basestation applications where a high intercept point is
required with low noise figure. The SLX-2043 uses PHEMT
device technology, internal bias circuitry, and proven
ceramic module technology to yield a high performance
product with proven reliability. Internal RF matching is also
included on both the input and output to provide an easy to
implement, unconditionally stable, 50 ohm circuit block.

Operation of this device above any one of these
parameters may cause permanent damage.
Bias conditions should also satisfy the following
expression: IDVD (max) < (TJ - TOP)/Rth, j-l
Function
Description
RF In
RF input pin. This pin requires the use of an
external DC blocking capacitor chosen for the frequency of operation.
2
RF Out/
Bias
RF output and bias pin. Bias should be supplied
to this pin through an external RF choke inductor.
Because DC biasing is present on this pin, a DC
blocking capacitor should be used in most applications (see application schematic). The supply
side of the bias network should be well bypassed.
