ADL5246ACPZN-R7

RF Amplifiers Overview

The ADL5246ACPZN-R7 is a wideband variable gain low-noise amplifier (VGA/LNA) manufactured by Analog Devices Inc. It operates within a frequency range of 600 MHz to 3 GHz and is housed in a 32-LFCSP-WQ (5x5) package. The device provides a typical gain of 31.5 dB with a noise figure of 1.5 dB at a test frequency of 2.2 GHz. It features a P1dB compression point of 28 dBm and draws 270 mA from a 4.75 V to 5.25 V supply. This component integrates a half-watt driver amplifier, designed for high-performance RF signal chain applications.

RF Amplifiers Procurement Notes

Verify current availability status as this component may be discontinued or subject to limited supply constraints. Confirm package integrity and RoHS compliance against official datasheets before integration. Check for obsolescence notices from Analog Devices to ensure long-term project viability. Validate pinout compatibility if replacing existing designs.

RF Amplifiers Selection Notes

Select this component for applications requiring integrated drive capability alongside low-noise amplification in the sub-3 GHz spectrum. Consider the 32-pin LFCSP footprint for board space constraints. Evaluate the 270 mA supply current against power budget requirements. Ensure the 600 MHz lower frequency limit aligns with system bandwidth needs.
