BGA734L16
Highly Integrated Tri-Band Low Noise Amplifier
for UMTS and HSxPA Systems
T h e B G A 7 3 4 L 1 6 is a highly integrated Low Noise Amplifier for 3G low,
mid, and high bands. Designed using a proprietary Silicon Germanium Carbon
process, the BGA734L16 delivers outstanding RF performance while optimizing cost,
battery life, and size.
High Level of Integration
In order to reduce front-end design complexity and minimize cost, the BGA734L16
monolithically integrates three amplifiers for cellular bands 800 Mhz, 1900 Mhz,
and 2100 Mhz on one die. Additional functions, including temperature stabilizing
block, 1kV hBM eSD protection, and output matching network are also integrated on
chip.
Battery Life Optimized
The BGA734L16 offers gain control capability for improving the dynamic range and
system performance in presence of high levels of interferers. Controlling the gain of
the LNA has also the advantage of extending battery life.
Small Form Factor
The BGA734L16 comes in a low profile, Tiny and Small Leadless Package code-
named TSLP-16. The package measures 2.3 x 2.3 x 0.39 mm
3
making this device
ideal for low profile multi-media phones and highly integrated front end modules.
