ALM-2506 - AVAGO

ALM-2506 GPS Low Noise Amplifi er Variable Current/Shutdown Function

Avago Technologies’s ALM-2506 is a LNA designed for GPS/ISM/Wimax applications in the (0.9-2.4)GHz frequency range. The LNA uses Avago Technologies’s proprietary GaAs Enhancement-mode pHEMT process to achieve high gain operation with very low noise figures and high linearity. Noise figure distribution is very tightly controlled. Gain and supply current are g.
