PRODUCT OVERVIEW
The PMA3-83LNW+ is a PHEMT based wideband, low noise MMIC amplifier with a unique combination of low noise, high IP3,
and flat gain over wideband making it ideal for sensitive, high-dynamic-range receiver applications.
This design operates on a
single 5V or 6V supply, is well matched for 50Ω and comes in a tiny, low profile package (3 x 3 x 0.89mm), accommodating dense
circuit board layouts.

Feature
Advantages
Low noise, 1.2 dB at 2 GHz
Enables lower system noise figure performance.
High IP3
Combination of low noise and high IP3 makes this MMIC amplifier ideal for use in low noise receiver front end
(RFE) as it gives the user advantages of sensitivity and two-tone IM performance at both ends of the dynamic
range.
y
+37 dBm at 2 GHz
y
+29 dBm at 8 GHz
Low operating voltage, 5V/6V.
Achieves high IP3 using low voltage.
Tiny footprint saves space in dense layouts while providing low inductance, repeatable transitions, and excellent
thermal contact to the PCB.
3 x 3mm 12-lead MCLP package
Wide bandwidth with flat gain
y
y
0.6 dB over 0.4 to 7 GHz
1.5 dB over 0.4 to 8 GHz
Enables a single amplifier to be used in many wideband applications including defense, instrumentation and more.
