Description
The MAAL-011182 is a wideband distributed low
noise amplifier with an operating frequency range of
2 to 20 GHz. This LNA has a 1.5 dB typical noise
figure @ 14 GHz, 15 dB typical gain, and a 24 dBm
typical output IP3. The output P1dB is 14 dBm
typical with a 16 dBm typical P3dB. Only a single
positive bias supply voltage of 5 V is required to bias
the LNA. The typical current draw is 65 mA.
Pin Configuration1,2
No external matching components are required.
There are internal DC blocking capacitors at the
input and output pins.
