The SST12LN01 is a cost effective Low-Noise Amplifier (LNA) which requires no external RF-matching components. This device is based on the 0.5m GaAs PHEMT technology, and complies with 802.11 b/g applications.
SST12LN01 provides high-performance, low-noise, and moderate-gain operation within the 2.4–2.5 GHz frequency band. Across this frequency band, the LNA typically provides 14 dB gain and 1.55 dB noise figure.
This LNA cell is designed with a self DC-biasing scheme, which maintains low DC current consumption, nominally at 11 mA, during operation. Optimum performance is achieved with only a single power supply, and no external bias resistors or networks are required. The input and output ports are single-ended 50Ù matched. RF ports are also DC isolated requiring no DC blocking capacitors or matching components.
The SST12LN01 is offered in a 6-contact UQFN package.
