Ultra Low-Noise, Bypass LNA
Product Overview
The TQL9063 is a high-linearity, ultra-low noise gain block
amplifier with a bypass mode functionality integrated in the
product. At 1.95 GHz, the amplifier typically provides 19 dB
gain, +36.3 dBm OIP3, and 0.7 dB noise figure while
drawing 77 mA current from a +5 V supply. The component 8-pin 2x2 mm DFN Package
also provides high linearity in the bypass mode with +39
dBm IIP3.
Key Features
The TQL9063 is internally matched using a high-
• 0.5 – 4.0 GHz Operational bandwidth
performance E-pHEMT process and only requires four
external components for operation from a single positive • LNA with integrated bypass mode
supply: an external RF choke and blocking/bypass • Ability to turn LNA and bypass mode OFF
capacitors. This low noise amplifier contains an internal • Ultra-low noise, 0.7 dB at 1.95 GHz
active bias to maintain high performance over temperature. • 19 dB Gain at 1.95 GHz
• +36.3 dBm Output IP3 in LNA Mode
The TQL9063 covers the 0.5 – 4.0 GHz frequency band and • +39 dBm Input IP3 in Bypass Mode
is targeted for wireless infrastructure. The TQL9063 is
• Internally matched
packaged in a 2 x 2 mm DFN.
• Positive supply only, +3.3 to +5 V
• 2x2 mm 8-pin DFN plastic package

Notes:
1. All dimensions are in millimeters. Angles are in degrees.
2. Except where noted, this part outline conforms to JEDEC standard MO-229.
3. Dimension and tolerance formats conform to ASME Y14.4M-1994.
4. The terminal #1 identifier and terminal numbering conform to JESD 95-1 SPP-012.
Notes:
1. All dimensions are in millimeters. Angles are in degrees.
2. Use 1 oz. copper minimum for top and bottom layer metal.
3. Vias are required under the backside paddle of this device for proper RF/DC grounding and thermal dissipation. We recommend a 0.35mm
(#80/.0135") diameter bit for drilling via holes and a final plated through diameter of 0.25 mm (0.010”).
4. Ensure good package backside paddle solder attach for reliable operation and best electrical performance.
