SKY67015-396LF Block Diagram Adjustable supply current for higher IIP3 Improved NF and linearity compared to SiGe LNAs Description Incorporates on-die stability structures The SKY67015-396LF is a GaAs, pHEMT low-noise amplifier Miniature DFN (8-pin, 2 x 2 mm) package (MSL1 260 C per (LNA) with an integrated active bias. The advanced GaAs pHEMT JEDEC J-STD-020) enhancement mode process provides excellent return loss, low noise, and high linearity. The SKY67015-396LF is typically used at frequencies ranging Skyworks Green products are compliant with from 100 MHz to 300 MHz, The device has been successfully all applicable legislation and are halogen-free. tuned down to 30 MHz with the addition of external RC feedback. For additional information, refer to Skyworks Please contact Skyworks for details. Denition of Green, document number The device offers the ability to externally adjust the supply SQ04-0074. 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 supply current. Both RF OUT/VDD and RF IN pins should be DC blocked to ensure proper operation. 1 8 VBIAS N/C The SKY67015-396LF is manufactured in a compact, 2 x 2 mm, 8-pin Dual Flat No-Lead (DFN) package. A functional block 2 7 RF IN RF OUT/VDD 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. CAUTION: 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. Static charges may easily produce potentials of several kilovolts on the human body or equipment, which can discharge without detection. Industry-standard ESD precautions should be used at all times. Typical performance characteristics of the SKY67015-396LF are Electrical and Mechanical Specifications illustrated in Figures 3 through 15. The absolute maximum ratings of the SKY67015-396LF are provided in Table 2. Electrical specifications are provided in Tables 3 (18 mA operation) and 4 (5 mA operation). Skyworks Solutions, Inc.
