InGaAs – E-Mode pHEMT Low Noise Amplifier
TM
®
DESCRIPTION
The LX5561 is a low noise amplifier
(LNA) for WLAN applications in the
2.4-2.5 GHz frequency range. This
LNA is manufactured with an InGaAs
Enhancement mode pseudomorphic
HEMT (E-pHEMT) process.
It operates with a single positive
voltage supply of 3.3V, with noise
figure of 1.5dB while maintaining
input third order intercept point(IIP3)
of up to +6.5dBm.
The LNA is implemented with bias
circuit and input/output matching circuit
on chip, resulting in simple external
circuit on board. In addition, the on-
chip bias circuit provides stable
performance of gain, NF and current for
voltage variation compared to a general
resistor-network bias circuit.
The LX5561 is available in a 12-pin
2mm x 2mm micro-lead package
(MLPQ-12L).
