ALM-1912 GPS Filter–LNA Front–End Module
Data Sheet
Description
Avago Technologies’ ALM-1912 is a GPS front-end module that combines a GPS FBAR filter with high-gain low-noise amplifier (LNA).The LNA uses Avago Technologies’ proprietary GaAs Enhancement-mode pHEMT process to achieve high gain with very low noise figure and high linearity. Noise figure distribution is very tightly controlled. A CMOS-compatible shutdown pin is included either for turning the LNA on/off or for current adjustment. The filter use Avago Technologies’ leading-edge FBAR filter for low GPS band insertion loss and exceptional rejection at Cellular, PCS and WLAN band frequencies.
