Infineon's BGA825L6S is a best-in-class Low Noise Amplifier (LNA) for Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS). It has a package footprint of just 1.1mm × 0.9mm² and offers an extremely low noise figure as well as excellent linearity, low current and high gain.
The LNA is also self-shielded to avoid external interference and requires only one external component.
This single-chip LNA comes with integrated biasing, RF choke and output matching, all of which significantly reduce design timeframes and make it a lot easier for system engineers to drop the LNA into a receiver frontend and enhance a wireless system's sensitivity. The LNA also features an on-chip on/off switch which can be easily controlled using a DC level analog to the power supply voltage. On-chip ESD protection of 2kV HBM provides a high level of ESD robustness and eliminates the risk of ESD strikes when the receiver is in use.
