QPL9065 Ultra Low-Noise 2-Stage Bypass LNA Product Description The QPL9065 is a high-linearity, ultra-low noise 2-stage gain block amplifier module with a bypass mode functionality integrated to the second stage in the product. At 1.95GHz, the amplifier, under high gain mode, typically 16 Pin 3.5X3.5 mm Leadless SMT Package provides 37.5 dB gain, +36 dBm OIP3, and 0.55 dB noise figure while drawing 160 mA current from a +5V supply. The component also provides high performance in the low Product Features gain mode with 17.5 dB gain, 0.55dB noise figure and +33 dBm OIP3 while drawing 70 mA current. 0.45 3.8 GHz Operational bandwidth nd 2 stage LNA with integrated bypass mode The QPL9065 uses a high performance E-pHEMT process. Ability to turn LNA and bypass mode OFF This low noise amplifier contains an internal active bias to Ultra low noise, 0.55 dB at 1.95GHz maintain high performance over temperature. 37.5 dB Gain at 1.95GHz, 17.5 dB in Low Gain Mode +36 dBm Output IP3 in High Gain Mode The QPL9065 covers the 0.453.8 GHz frequency band +33 dBm Output IP3 in Low Gain Mode and is targeted for wireless infrastructure. The QPL9065 is Positive supply only, +3.3 to +5V housed in a 3.5x3.5mm SMT package. 1.8V CMOS TTL logic compatible on pins 5 & 8 Functional Block Diagram Applications Base Station Receivers Pin 1 Reference Mark Tower Mount Amplifiers VDD1 GND GND VDD2 Repeaters 16 15 14 13 FDD-LTE, TDD-LTE, WCDMA GND 1 12 GND General Purpose Wireless RF RF IN 2 11 OUT GND 3 10 GND GND 4 9 GND 5 6 7 8 VPD NC GND VBYP Backside Paddle - RF/DC GND Ordering Information Part No. Description QPL9065SR 100 pieces on a 7 reel QPL9065TR13 2500 pieces on a 13 reel QPL9065PCB401 1.7-2.7GHz Tuned Evaluation Board DATA SHEET May 4, 2017 Subject to change without notice - 1 of 12 - www.qorvo.com QPL9065 Ultra Low-Noise 2-Stage Bypass LNA Absolute Maximum Ratings Recommended Operating Conditions Parameter Ra nge/Value Units Parameter Min Typ Max Units Storage Temperature 65 to 150 C Supply Voltage +3.3 +5.0 +5.25 V Drain Voltage (V ) +7 V T 40 +105 C DD CASE Input Power (CW) +22 dBm Tj at T = 125C +169 C CASE Electrical specifications are measured under bias, signal and temperature Exceeding any one or a combination of the Absolute Maximum conditions as specified.
