ALM-1106
GPS Low Noise amplifier with Variable bias current and Shutdown function
Data Sheet
Description Avago Technologies’s ALM-1106 is a LNA designed for GPS/ISM/Wimax applications in the (0.9-3.5)GHz frequency range. The LNA uses Agilent Technologies’s proprietary GaAs Enhancement-mode pHEMT process to achieve high gain operation with very low noise figures and high linearity. Noise figure distribution is very tightly controlled. Gain and supply current are guaranteed parameters. A
CMOS compatible shutdown pin is included to turn the LNA off and provide a variable bias. The ALM-1106 LNA is useable down to 1V operation. It achieves low noise figures and high gain even at 1V, making it suitable for use in critical low power GPS/ISM band applications. Simplified Schmatic
