BGA736L16 - Tri-Band HSDPA LNA
Description
1
Description
The BGA736L16 is a highly flexible, tri-gain mode, and tri-band (2100, 1900/2100, 800/900 MHz) MMIC low noise
amplifier for worldwide use. Based on Infineon’s proprietary and cost-effective SiGe:C technology, the BGA736L16
features dynamic gain control, temperature stabilization, standby mode, and 2 kV ESD protection on-chip and
matching off chip.
While two gain modes are common in W-CDMA systems, a third gain mode has been introduced to reduce the
LNA gain just enough to pass adjacent channel tests without compromising on HSDPA performance. The
1900 MHz path can be converted into a 2100 MHz path and vice versa by optimizing the input matching and using
an additional external output matching network. This document specifies device performance for the band
combinations - UMTS bands I / II / V and UMTS bands I / IV / VIII.
Features
• Gain: 16 / 3 / -8 dB in high / mid / low gain mode
• Noise figure: 1.1 dB in high gain mode
• Supply current: 5.3 / 5.3 / 0.85 mA in high / mid / low gain modes
• Standby mode current consumption < 2
µA
• Outputs internally matched to 50
Ω
• 2 kV HBM ESD protection
• Low external component count
• Small leadless TSLP-16-1 package (2.3 x 2.3 x 0.39 mm)
• Pb-free (RoHS compliant) package
