Low noise amplifier with lange couplers for 24-42 GHz frequencies for 5G , satcom and other applications
RFLN06C is a four stage low noise amplifier.
Overview
RFLN06C is a four stage low noise amplifier. It provides high gain over wide bandwidth, low noise figure, high isolation, stability. The LNA is designed to operate from 24-42 GHz using 0.1um GaAs pHEMT process. Bias current and gain can be set with the gate bias to allow the user to customize the current, gain and NF value to fit the applications. The LNA offers less than 2.7 dB of noise figure, 25.65 dB of small signal gain, OP1dB of 16.4 dBm along with the flexibility of setting current and gain makes this LNA an ideal front end amplifier in 5G, terrestrial communication system and radar applications. All results are shown in datasheet with considering of parasitics and coupling effects in layout.
