High gain MMIC LNA targets satellite radio receivers

NEC's newest InGaP MMIC low-noise amplifier (LNA) UPG2310TK targets the 2.34 GHz satellite digital audio radio services (SDARS) applications, as well as the 2.4 GHz – 2.5 GHz ISM band. Designed for use in antenna modules, the UPG2310TK replaces two stages of discrete amplifiers to lower a circuit’s part count and simplify its design. It features high gain, low noise figure, and high intercept point, all in a super-compact 6-pin leadless 1.5 mm x 1.3 mm x 0.55 mm minimold package.
