LNA-20-00100600-40-25P

Overview

The LNA-20-00100600-40-25P is a low-noise amplifier module manufactured by L3 Narda-MITEQ, designed for VSAT applications. It operates within a frequency range of 100 MHz to 6 GHz. The device provides a gain of 20 dB and achieves a noise figure of 4 dB. Key performance metrics include a P1dB compression point of 25 dBm. Electrical requirements consist of a 15 V power supply voltage with a typical current consumption of 225 mA. The component is housed in a module package equipped with SMA connectors.

Feature Summary

• Integrated low-noise amplifier module optimized for VSAT system integration
• Wideband operational capability spanning from 100 MHz to 6 GHz
• High linearity output performance characterized by 25 dBm P1dB

Applications

• VSAT communication systems
• Satellite ground station uplink/downlink chains
• Broadband RF signal conditioning

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against the manufacturer's official datasheet to ensure correct pinout and connector configuration. Confirm that the 15V supply requirement aligns with your system design before procurement. Check for any recent revisions to the LNA-20 series documentation that may impact mechanical or electrical specifications.

Selection Notes

Select this model when a wide bandwidth covering 100 MHz to 6 GHz is required alongside moderate gain. The 4 dB noise figure suits applications where signal integrity is critical but ultra-low noise is not the primary constraint. Ensure the 225 mA current draw fits within the available power budget of the host equipment.

Part Context

This component belongs to the LNA-20 series of modular amplifiers from L3 Narda-MITEQ. The series offers various configurations tailored for satellite communications. This specific part number denotes a 20 dB gain variant with SMA interfaces, distinct from higher gain models like the LNA-40 series which offer 40 dB gain but different noise characteristics.

Replacement Considerations

Direct replacements within the same series include LNA-20-00100600-16-10P and LNA-20-00100600-18-15P. These alternatives share the same form factor and frequency range but differ in gain and noise figure specifications. Verify compatibility with existing biasing networks when substituting.
