Description
M/A-COM’s MAALSS0027 is a GaAs MMIC low
noise amplifier in a low-cost SOT-26 surface mount
plastic package. It employs a monolithic 2-stage
design featuring a convenient 50-ohm input/output
impedance that minimizes the number of external
components required.
The MAALSS0027 is optimized for the GPS
frequency of 1.575 GHz. It operates with a single 3
volt to 5 volt supply and has an off chip resistor that
can be used to improve the linearity performance.
The MAALSS0027 is fabricated using M/A-COM’s
E/D process to realize low noise and high dynamic
range. The process features full passivation for
increased performance and reliability.
