Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix required for your application, as Mini-Circuits offers variations such as tape-and-reel or cut-tape options. Confirm RoHS compliance status, which is indicated as compliant with ROHS3 specifications. Ensure the selected variant matches the required packaging quantity and handling requirements for your production line. Cross-reference the manufacturer part number with distributor codes to avoid selection errors during procurement.

Selection Notes

Select the LEE2-6+ when a wide bandwidth extending to 7 GHz is required alongside moderate gain levels. Consider this component for applications prioritizing low noise figures around 3.1 dB. Evaluate the 16 mA supply current against power budget constraints. The 6-TDFN package size should be assessed for PCB space limitations compared to alternative amplifier footprints in similar frequency ranges.
