MXDLN16T
Low Noise GPS Amplifier  
General Description  
Features  
MXDLN16T high gain, low noise amplifier (LNA) is  
dedicated to GPS, GLONASS Galileo and Beidou  
standards. This product has an extremely low  
noise figure of 0.6dB, 18.5dB gain and excellent  
linearity.  
High Gain: 18.5dB  
Low noise figure 0.6dB @ 1575.42MHz  
Low operation current 7 mA & PD current  
less than 1uA  
MXDLN16T works under a 1.2V to 2.85V single  
power supply while consumes 7 mA current, in  
power down (PD) mode, the power consumption  
will be reduced to less than 1uA.  
Single supply voltage range 1.2V to 2.85V  
Small package 1.1mmx0.7mmx0.45mm  
Low cost BOM  
Lead-Free and RoHS-Compliant  
MXDLN16T uses a small 1.1mmx0.7mmx0.45mm  
LGA 6-pin package.  
Applications  
Automotive Navigation  
Personal Navigation Device (PND)
