Description N/C
The MAAL-010528 is a high performance X-band VG1 N/C VG2 N/C
GaAs LNA, housed in a miniature, lead-free 3 mm
PQFN surface mount plastic package. This MMIC Pin Configuration
operates from 8 to 12 GHz providing a nominal gain
of 20 dB with excellent gain flatness, high OIP3 Pin No. Pin Name Description
linearity of 26 dBm, and a mid-band noise figure of 1
1.6 dB. The part features a self-bias architecture 2 N/C No Connection
which requires only a single, positive supply. The 3
device is internally matched to 50 input/ output 4 N/C No Connection
and is well suited to multiple applications including 53,4
Vsat, radar and microwave radios due to the part's 6
ease of use and excellent performance parameters. 73,4
