180TSMC_LNA_14 is a IP block which includes a low-noise amplifier (LNA), gain control system and supply voltage controller. The low-noise amplifier is intended to amplify wideband high-frequency signal at the receiver input, provides a wide range of gain control and low noise figure as well as has high linearity characteristics. The supply voltage controller is designed to generate internal reference currents and indicate increased current consumption.
Wideband LNA with a gain adjustment range from -22 to 20dB
