Description
The SKY65709-51 is a Front-End Module (FEM) with an integrated
Low Noise Amplifier (LNA) and pre-filter designed for Global
Positioning System/Global Navigation Satellite System (GPS/GNSS)
receiver applications. The device provides high linearity, excellent
gain, a high 1 dB Input Compression Point (IP1dB), and a superior
Noise Figure (NF).
The LNA is fabricated using advanced silicon technology. The GPS
pre-filter provides the low in-band insertion loss and integrated
notch filtering for excellent rejections of the cellular, PCS, and
WLAN frequency bands. The SKY65709-51 uses Surface Mount
Technology (SMT) in the form of a 1.7 x 2.3 mm Multi-Chip
Module (MCM) package, which allows for a highly manufacturable
and low-cost solution.
A functional block diagram is shown in Figure 1. The pin
configuration and package are shown in Figure 2.
