The TSS-23ULN+ from Mini-Circuits is a pHEMT-based Ultra-Low Noise MMIC Amplifier that operates from 10 to 2000 MHz. It is designed for sensitive, high-dynamic-range receiver applications and features a voltage-controlled shutdown capability to conserve power. This amplifier provides a gain of 20 dB, a noise figure of 0.4 dB, and an output P1dB of +20.3 dBm. It can handle an RF input power of up to +21 dBm with an input return loss of 15 dB and an output return loss of 13 dB. This LNA features a voltage-controlled shutdown function with an off time of 7.5 ns, allowing it to be quickly disabled to conserve power when not in use.
The TSS-23ULN+ requires a DC supply of 2.7 to 5.25 V and consumes 70.6 mA of current. This RoHS-compliant amplifier is available in an 8-lead QFN package measuring 2.0 × 2.0 mm and can operate over a temperature range from -45°C to +105°C. It is ideal for use in cellular infrastructure, satellite communications, and radar, EW, and ECM defense systems.
