SKY67014-396LF Block Diagram Miniature DFN (8-pin, 2 x 2 mm) package (MSL1 260 C per JEDEC J-STD-020) Description TM Skyworks Green products are compliant with The SKY67014-396LF is a GaAs, pHEMT low-noise amplifier all applicable legislation and are halogen-free. (LNA) with an integrated active bias. The advanced GaAs pHEMT For additional information, refer to Skyworks enhancement mode process provides excellent return loss, low TM Denition of Green , document number noise, and high linearity. SQ040074. The device offers the ability to externally adjust the supply current. The supply voltage is applied to the RF-OUT/VDD pin through an RF choke inductor. The VBIAS pin should be connected to the RF OUT/VDD pin through an external resistor to control the 1 VBIAS 8 N/C supply current. Both RF OUT/VDD and RF IN pins should be DC blocked to ensure proper operation. 2 7 RF IN RF OUT/VDD The SKY67014-396LF is manufactured in a compact, 2 x 2 mm, 8-pin Dual Flat No-Lead (DFN) package. A functional block 3 6 N/C N/C diagram is shown in Figure 1. The pin configuration and package are shown in Figure 2.

There is no damage to device with only one parameter set at the limit and all other parameters set at or below their nominal value. Exceeding any of the limits listed here may result in permanent damage to the device. ESD HANDLING: Although this device is designed to be as robust as possible, electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage this device. This device must be protected at all times from ESD when handling or transporting. Static charges may easily produce potentials of several kilovolts on the human body or equipment, which can discharge without detection. Industry-standard ESD handling precautions should be used at all times. Skyworks Solutions, Inc.
