MAAL-011134 Low Noise Amplifier Rev. V6 700 MHz - 6 GHz Features Functional Block Diagram 700 MHz - 6 GHz Low Noise Amplifier Low Noise Figure: 0.9 dB 5.8 GHz High Gain: 17.7 dB 5.8 GHz N/C 1 8 N/C High Linearity OIP3: 34 dBm 5.5 GHz Single Voltage Bias: 3 - 5 V RF / OUT RF 2 7 IN Integrated Active Bias Circuit V DD Current Adjustable 30 - 80 mA BIAS N/C Fast Switching Speed: <200 ns 3 6 N/C Lead-Free 2 mm 8-LD PDFN Package Halogen-Free Green Mold Compound V N/C 4 5 BIAS RoHS* Compliant Description 3 Pin Configuration The MAAL-011134 is a high dynamic range, single stage MMIC LNA designed to operate from Pin No. Pin Name Description 700 MHz - 6 GHz assembled in a lead-free 2 mm 8-LD PDFN plastic package. This amplifier has ultra 1 N/C No Connection low noise figure, high gain and excellent linearity. In the 50 environment and at 3 V, this device offers 2 RF RF Input IN less than 0.5 dB noise figure at 2.4 GHz, with 24 dB 3 N/C No Connection of gain and over 33 dBm OIP3. 4 N/C No Connection This low noise amplifier has an integrated active bias circuit allowing direct connection to 3 V or 5 V 5 V Bias Voltage BIAS bias and minimizing variations over temperature and process. The bias current is set by an external 6 N/C No Connection resistor, so the user can customize the power 7 RF / V RF Output / Drain Voltage consumption to fit the application. V can be OUT DD BIAS utilized as an enable pin to power the device up and 8 N/C No Connection down during operation. 4 9 Pad Ground This MAAL-011134 is ideally suited for 802.11 multimode applications at 2.4 GHz and 5.8 GHz. 3. MACOM recommends connecting all No Connection (N/C) pins to ground. The high gain, low noise figure and fast switching 4. The exposed pad centered on the package bottom must be speed make it ideal for 4 x 4 MIMO 802.11ac connected to RF, DC and thermal ground. applications. 1,2 Ordering Information Part Number Package MAAL-011134-TR3000 3000 piece reel Sample Board MAAL-011134-1SMB 5 - 6 GHz Sample Board MAAL-011134-2SMB 2.4 GHz *Restrictions on Hazardous Substances, 1.
