MGA-64606
Low Noise Amplifier with switchable Bypass/Shutdown Mode
in Low Profile Package
Data Sheet
Description
Avago Technologies’ MGA-64606 is an economical,
easy-to-use GaAs MMIC Low Noise Amplifier (LNA) with
Bypass/ Shutdown mode. The LNA has low noise and high
linearity achieved through the use of Avago Technologies’
proprietary 0.25
m
GaAs Enhancement-mode pHEMT
process. The Bypass/Shutdown mode enables the LNA to
be bypassed during high input signal power and reduce
current consumption. It is housed in a low profile 2.0 x 1.3
x 0.5mm
3
6-pin Ultra Thin Package. The compact footprint
and low profile coupled with low noise, high linearity make
the MGA-64606 an ideal choice as a low noise amplifier for
mobile receiver in the WiMAX, WLAN(802.11b/g), WiBro
and DMB applications.

Notes:
1. Device operation in LNA mode if Vbias > 1.5 V and VSD < 0.5 V. Bias current of LNA can be varied
with different values of Vbias for Vbias > 1.5 V. See Fig 5 below.
2. Device operation in BYPASS mode if Vbias < 0.3 V and VSD < 0.5 V.
3. Device is shutdown if Vsd > 2.2 V. In SHUTDOWN mode, LNA and internal Bypass switch is
turned OFF. SHUTDOWN mode overrides Vbias voltage setting. Pin 6 (Vsd) is a Pull-Down logic
function pin and recommend to ground it if shutdown function is not used in application.

Application Notes
1. Performance in a specified frequency band can be optimized by changing component values in the demo board
above to suit the application at that frequency. The schematic on page 5 and 11 show two sets of components used
to demonstrate performance at the (2.3 – 2.4) GHz Wibro band and (2.5 – 2.7) GHz WiMAX/DMB band.
2. Pin1 (Vbias pin) voltage in LNA mode can be varied to enable the LNA bias current to be adjusted, refer to next
