MGA-637P8

MGA-637P8 High Linearity Low Noise Amplifier Data Sheet Description Avago Technologies’ MGA-637P8 is an economical, easyto-use GaAs MMIC Low Noise Amplifier (LNA). This LNA has low noise and high linearity achieved through the use of Avago Technologies’ proprietary 0.25 m GaAs Enhancement-mode pHEMT process. It is housed in the miniature 2.0 x 2.0 x 0.75 mm3 8-pin Dual-Flat-Non-Lead (DFN) package. The device is designed for optimum use from 1.5 GHz up to 2.5 GHz. The compact footprint and low profile coupled with low noise, high gain and high linearity make this an ideal choice as a low noise amplifier for cellular infrastructure applications such as LTE, GSM, CDMA, W-CDMA, CDMA2000 & TD-SCDMA. For optimum performance at lower frequency from 450 MHz up to 1.5 GHz, MGA-636P8 is recommended. For optimum performance at higher frequency from 2.5 GHz up to 4 GHz, MGA-638P8 is recommended. All these 3 products, MGA-636P8, MGA-637P8 and MGA-638P8 share the same package and pinout configuration.
