Low Noise Amplifier

PL03S / PL03A

Products and product information are subject to change without notice. Version 13

Description

The PL03S / PL03A is a high performance GaAs p-HEMT LNA

(Low Noise Amplifier). The features of PL03S / PL03A are high

linear performance, low noise figure and high reliability. The PL03S /

PL03A can be easily matched to obtain optimum noise figure and

linearity. The PL03S / PL03A operates from a single 5 voltage

supply and has an internal active bias. This PL03S / PL03A provides

the most suitable solutions for LNA in communication systems. All

devices are 100% RF and DC tested.
