Avago’s MGA-71543 is an economical, easy-to-use GaAs
MMIC Low Noise Amplifier (LNA), which is designed for
adaptive CDMA and W-CDMA receiver systems. The MGA-
71543 is part of the Avago Technologies complete CD-
MAdvantage RF chipset.
The MGA-71543 features a minimum noise figure of 0.8 dB
and 16 dB available gain from a single stage, feedback FET
amplifier. The input and output are partially matched, and
only a simple series/shunt inductor match is required to
achieve low noise figure and VSWR into 50Ω.
When set into the bypass mode, both input and output
are internally matched through a mitigative circuit. This
circuit draws no current, yet duplicates the in and out im-
pedance of the LNA. This allows the system user to have
minimum mismatch change from LNA to bypass mode,
which is very important when the MGA-71543 is used be-
tween duplexers and/or filters.
The MGA-71543 offers an integrated solution of LNA with
adjustable IIP3. The IIP3 can be fixed to a desired current
level for the receiver’s linearity requirements.
The LNA has a bypass switch function, which provides low
insertion loss at zero current. The bypass mode also boosts
dynamic range when high level signal is being received.
The MGA-71543 is designed for CDMA and W-CDMA re-
ceiver systems. The IP3, Gain, and mitigative network are
tailored to these applications where filters are used. Many
CDMA systems operate 20% LNA mode, 80% bypass. With
the bypass current draw of zero and LNA of 10 mA, the
MGA-71543 allows an average 2 mA current.
The MGA-71543 is a GaAs MMIC, processed on Avago’s
cost effective PHEMT (Pseudomorphic High Electron Mo-
bility Transistor Technology). It is housed in the SOT343
(SC70 4-lead) package.

Notes:
1. Standard Deviation and Typical Data based at least 450 part sample size from 9 wafers. Future wafers allocated to this product may have nominal values
anywhere within the upper and lower spec limits.
2. Measurements made on a fixed tuned production test circuit (Figure 4) that represents a trade-off between optimal noise match, maximum gain match,
and a realizable match based on production test board requirements at 10 mA bias current. Excess circuit losses have been de-embedded from actual
measurements. Vd=Vds-Vref where Vds is adjusted to maintain a constant Vd bias equivalent to a single supply 3V bias application. Consult Applica-
tions Note for circuit biasing options.
3. Minimum Noise Figure and Associated Gain data computed from s-parameter and noise parameter data measured in a 50Ω system using ATN NP5 test
system. Data based on 10 typical parts from 9 wafers. Associated Gain is the gain when the product input is matched for minimum Noise Figure.
4. P1dB measurements were performed in the evaluation circuit with source resistance biasing. As P1dB is approached, the drain current is maintained
near the quiescent value by the feedback effect of the source resistor in the evaluation circuit. Consult Applications Note for circuit biasing options.
5. Measurements made on a fixed tuned production test circuit that represents a trade-off between optimal noise match, maximum gain match, and a
realizable match based on production test board requirements at 10 mA bias current. Performance may be optimized for different bias conditions and
applications. Consult Applications Note.
6. The Bypass Mode test conditions are required only for the production test circuit (Figure 4) using the gate bias method. In the preferred source resistor
bias configuration, the Bypass Mode is engaged by presenting a DC open circuit instead of the bias resistor on Pin 4.
