2 TO 26 GHz LOW-NOISE RECEIVER FRONT END
MODEL: AR0226LC1
FEATURES
• RF/LO Coverage ......... 2 to 26 GHz
• Conversion Gain.......... 25 dB Typical
• Noise Figure............... 6 dB Maximum
MITEQ’s AR model series offers state-of-the-art low-noise amplifiers integrated with ultra-small image rejec-
tion mixers to provide a complete receiver front-end assembly. Standard units are aligned for operation with
the LO frequency less than the desired RF. For LO > RF, add suffix L to the end of the part number. For
operation with the LO above or below the RF (i.e., 2 output ports), and suffix B to the end of the part num-
ber (image rejection degrades by 2 dB). Special units are available in phase and amplitude matched sets
with optional RF limiter protection for the LNAs.
