MAX2686L
MAX2686L is GPS/GNSS Low-Noise Amplifiers manufactured by Maxim Integrated.
Description
The MAX2686L/MAX2693L low-noise amplifiers (LNAs) are designed for GPS L1, Galileo, and GLONASS applications. Designed in Maxim’s advanced Si Ge process, the devices achieve high gain and low noise figure while maximizing the input-referred 1d B pression point and the 3rd-order intercept point. Both devices include an internal LDO ideal for battery-powered applications. For currentsensitive applications, the MAX2693L achieves excellent performance while consuming only 1.8m A current.
The devices operate from a +1.6V to +4.2V single supply. The shutdown feature reduces the supply current to less than 20µA. The devices are available in a very small, lead-free, Ro HS-pliant, 0.86mm x 0.86mm x 0.65mm wafer-level package (WLP).
