Number 640-061603 Rev A. Standard FR4 material is used in a three-layer PCB. Please refer to cross-sectional diagram. Low-cost, standard "0402" case-size SMT passive components are used throughout. Please refer to schematic and Bill Of Material. The LNA is unconditionally stable from 5 MHz to 6 GHz. Total PCB area used for the single LNA stage is approximately 35 mm ². Total Parts count, including the BFP640 Transistor is 12. Achieved ‰… 17 dB gain, 0. 92 dB Noise Figure at 1575 MHz from 3. 0 V supply drawing 8. 3 mA. Note noise figure result does NOT "back out" FR4 PCB losses - if the PCB loss at LNA input were extracted, Noise Figure result would be approximately 0. 2 dB lower. Amplifier is unconditionally stable from 5 MHz to 6 GHz. Input P1dB ‰ -13. 1 dBm @ 1575. 4 MHz. Outstanding Input Third Order Intercept of +7. 7 dBm.
