MCM LNA LCL1503-L / LCL1803-L Product Features Applications • Multichip Hybrid Module • GaAs p-HEMT & HBT chip on board • No matching circuit needed • High Gain & Low Noise • Single Supply Voltage (+5V) • Surface Mount Hybrid Type • Tape & Reel Packaging • Small Size, High Heatsink • Alumina Substrate • Pb Free / RoHS Standard • 2G & 3G Repeater • Base Station • PCS, CDMA, W-CDMA • GSM, DCS, UMTS • WiMAX, Wibro, WLAN • RF Sub-Systems Package Type : CP-16B Description RFHIC’s LOW Noise Amplifier series are all hybrid LNA type products which includes all matching for the convenience of customers. LCL series are focused on higher OIP3 while maintaining low noise. The structure of the device is built with GaAs p-HEMT die attached on a ceramic thick film substrate. The device is still smaller than the area one would use for the application notes all together. Depending on the part number, one can use this in different frequency applications. All LNA hybrids are possible to have custom frequency & spec without any additional NRE cost involved. All RFHIC products are RoHS compliant.

Functional Diagram Application Circuit ESD Protection Gallium Arsenide Integrated Circuits are sensitive to electrostatic discharge (ESD) and can be damaged by static electricity. Proper ESD control techniques should be used when handling these devices. Some of the precautions recommended are; - Person at a workbench should be earthed via a wrist strap and a resistor. - All mains-powered equipment should be connected to the mains via an earth-leakage switch. - Equipment cases should be grounded. - Relative humidity should be maintained between 40% and 50%. - An ionizer is recommended. - Keep static materials, such as plastic envelopes and plastic trays etc. away from the workbench.

Ground / thermal via holes are critical for the proper performance of this device. 2. Add as much copper as possible to inner and outer layers near the part to ensure optimal thermal performance. 3. Mounting screws can be added near the part to fasten the board to a heatsink. Ensure that the ground / thermal via hole region contacts the heatsink. 4. Do not put solder mask on the backside of the PCB in the region where the board contacts the heatsink. 5. RF trace width depends upon the PCB material and construction. 6. Use 1 oz. Copper minimum.
