MAX2371

PRODUCTION

LNAs with Step Attenuator and VGA

Viewing:

Overview

  • Low Noise Figure (1.8dB typical)
  • High Small-Signal Gain (15dB Nominal)
  • Wide Frequency Range of Operation (100MHz to 1GHz)
  • 20dB Step Attenuator
  • 45dB AGC Range Excluding Step Attenuator
  • 2.65V to 3.3V Single-Supply Operation
  • Shutdown Mode
  • 3.5mA Supply Current, Adjustable Down to 2.5mA
  • 40dB Reverse Isolation
  • The MAX2371/MAX2373 wideband low-noise amplifier (LNA) ICs are designed for direct conversion receiver (DCR) or very low intermediate frequency (VLIF) receiver applications. They contain single-channel, single-ended LNAs with switchable attenuator and automatic gain control (AGC) intended as a low-noise gain stage. These devices provide high gain-control range (typically 60dB) at radio frequency (RF) with excellent noise and reverse isolation characteristics.

    The MAX2371/MAX2373 can work over the frequency range from 100MHz to 1GHz. In practice, only a narrow band is needed in each application, so different matching circuits can be applied. The devices are dynamically configured through the digital/analog control pins to select either maximum gain and low noise figure or power-saving mode. In addition, the MAX2371/MAX2373 feature high/low-current modes, high/low attenuation modes, linearly controlled gain states, and shutdown mode.

    Applications

    • Direct Conversion Receiver (DCR)
    • Very Low IF Receiver
