ADL7078ACPZN-R7

RF Amplifiers Overview

The ADL7078ACPZN-R7 is a wideband low noise amplifier (LNA) from Analog Devices, operating within a frequency range of 1 GHz to 20 GHz. It provides a typical gain of 13 dB and an output third-order intercept point (OIP3) of 28 dBm at 2 GHz. The device features a noise figure of 4.4 dB in the 2 GHz to 18 GHz band and supports high RF input power survivability up to 32 dBm. It operates on a single 5 V supply with a nominal static current of 175 mA. Packaged in a 24-lead LFCSP (4 mm x 4 mm), it is rated for temperatures between -40°C and +85°C.

RF Amplifiers Feature Summary

RF Amplifiers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix R7 indicates reel packaging when sourcing. Confirm RoHS compliance status through official documentation. Ensure the 24-lead LFCSP footprint matches your PCB layout requirements. Check for any recent production change notices that may affect pinout or electrical characteristics before finalizing procurement.

RF Amplifiers Selection Notes

Select this component for applications requiring broad bandwidth coverage from 1 GHz to 20 GHz. It is suitable where high linearity and robust input power handling are critical alongside low noise performance. Consider the integrated matching components if space constraints limit board area. Evaluate thermal dissipation capabilities given the 2.57 W power dissipation rating in the specified package.

RF Amplifiers Part Context

This part belongs to the ADL7078 series of wideband LNAs manufactured using GaAs pHEMT technology. It is designed to replace older discrete solutions by integrating passive components directly into the package. The device serves as a front-end amplification stage in high-frequency radio systems requiring stability across multiple octaves.

RF Amplifiers Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other wideband LNAs from Analog Devices such as the ADL7078ACPZN. Verify compatibility with existing bias networks and impedance matching circuits when considering alternative manufacturers' parts.
