TQL9044 Ultra Low Noise Bypass LNA RFMD + TriQuint = Qorvo Applications Base Station Receivers Tower Mount Amplifiers Repeaters FDD-LTE, TDD-LTE, WCDMA General Purpose Wireless 10-pin 3x3 mm DFN Package Product Features Functional Block Diagram 1.5 4.0 GHz Operational bandwidth Pin 1 Reference Mark Package Topside LNA with integrated bypass mode Ability to turn LNA and bypass mode OFF V 1 10 V Ultra low noise, 0.6 dB at 1.9GHz CTRL2 CTRL1 19.4 dB Gain at 1.9GHz N/C 2 9 N/C +34.5 dBm Output IP3 in LNA Mode 3 8 RF In RF Out +36 dBm Input IP3 in Bypass Mode N/C 4 7 N/C Internally matched Positive supply only, +3.3 to +5V GND 5 6 V DD 3x3 mm 10-pin DFN plastic package Backside Pad - RF/DC GND General Description Pin Configuration The TQL9044 is a high-linearity, ultra-low noise gain Pin No. Label block amplifier with a bypass mode functionality 1 V CTRL2 integrated in the product. At 1.9GHz, the amplifier 2, 4, 7, 9 N/C typically provides 19.4 dB gain, +34.5 dBm OIP3, and 3 RFin 0.6 dB noise figure while drawing 70 mA current from a 5 GND +5V supply. The component also provides high linearity 6 V DD in the bypass mode with +36 dBm IIP3. 8 RFout The TQL9044 is internally matched using a high 10 VCTRL1 performance E-pHEMT process and only requires four Backside Paddle RF/DC GND external components for operation from a single positive supply: an external RF choke and blocking/bypass capacitors. This low noise amplifier contains an internal active bias to maintain high performance over temperature. The TQL9044 covers the 1.54.0 GHz frequency band Ordering Information and is targeted for wireless infrastructure. The TQL9044 is packaged in a 3x3mm and is pin compatible with the Part No. Description 0.52.0 GHz TQL9042 and 1.52.7GHz TQL9043.
