SA601 Overview
The SA601 is a bined RF amplifier and mixer designed for high-performance low-power munication systems from 800-1200MHz. The low-noise preamplifier has a 1.6dB noise figure at 900MHz with 11.5dB gain and an IP3 intercept of -2dBm at the input. The gain is stabilized by on-chip pensation to vary less than ±0.2dB over -40 to +85°C temperature range.
SA601 Key Features
- Low current consumption: 7.4mA nominal, 4.4mA with the mixer
- Outstanding LNA noise figure: 1.6dB at 900MHz
- High system power gain: 18dB (LNA + Mixer) at 900MHz
- Excellent gain stability versus temperature and supply voltage
- External >-7dBm LO can be used to drive the mixer
