LTE3401LX

LTE3401L XS ON 6 SiGe:C low-noise amplifier MMIC with bypass switch for LTE 1 Rev. 3.2 — 18 December 2018 Product data sheet General description The LTE3401L is a high-gain Low-Noise Amplifier (LNA) with bypass switch for LTE receiver applications, available in a small plastic 6-pin thin leadless package. The LTE3401L delivers system-optimized gain for both primary and diversity applications where sensitivity improvement is required. The high linearity of this low noise device ensures the required receive sensitivity independent of cellular transmit power level in frequency division duplex (FDD) systems. When receive signal strength is sufficient, the LTE3401L can be switched off to operate in bypass mode at increased IP3i level and a 1 μA supply current, to lower power consumption. The LTE3401L is internally AC coupled and requires only one external matching inductor. The LTE3401L is optimized for 703 MHz to 960 MHz, but also can be tuned for 617 MHz to 652 MHz (B71). 2 Features and benefits • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • Operating frequency from 617 MHz to 960 MHz Noise figure = 0.63 dB Gain 18.4 dB High input 1 dB compression point of -7.8 dBm High in band IP3i of +0.7 dBm Bypass switch insertion loss of 1.8 dB Supply voltage 1.5 V to 3.1 V Integrated RF supply decoupling capacitor Optimized performance at a supply current of 10.3 mA Bypass mode current consumption < 1 μA Integrated temperature stabilized bias for easy design Requires only one input matching inductor Input and Output AC coupled through DC blocking capacitors Integrated matching for the output ESD protection on all pins Low bill of materials (BOM) 6 pins leadless package: 1.1 mm x 0.7 mm x 0.37 mm: 0.40 mm pitch 180 GHz transit frequency - SiGe:C technology Moisture sensitivity Level 1 LTE3401L NXP Semiconductors SiGe:C low-noise amplifier MMIC with bypass switch for LTE 3 Applications • • • • LTE3401L Product data sheet LNA for LTE reception in smart phones feature phones tablet PCs RF front-end modules All information provided in this document is subject to legal disclaimers.
