LNA-20-02004000-70-15P

Overview

The LNA-20-02004000-70-15P is an RF amplifier module manufactured by L3 Narda-MITEQ, designed for VSAT applications. It operates within a frequency range of 2 GHz to 40 GHz and provides a gain of 20 dB. The device requires a supply current of 400 mA. It is housed in a module package with SMA connectors, facilitating integration into high-frequency signal processing systems.

Feature Summary

• Wideband operation covering 2 GHz to 40 GHz
• Integrated SMA connector interface for direct system connection
• Optimized for VSAT satellite communication environments

Applications

• VSAT satellite communication ground stations
• High-frequency RF signal amplification links
• Microwave receiver front-end stages

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific datasheet revision and electrical tolerances directly with L3 Narda-MITEQ or authorized distributors before finalizing design integration. Confirm that the 400 mA supply current requirement aligns with your power budget constraints. Ensure SMA connector compatibility with existing PCB traces or cable assemblies. Request updated availability status as lead times may vary based on manufacturing schedules.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a wide bandwidth extending up to 40 GHz is required in a compact module form factor. The 20 dB gain specification suits applications needing moderate signal boosting without excessive noise figure degradation. Consider the 400 mA power consumption during thermal management planning. Verify that the SMA interface meets the impedance matching requirements of the surrounding circuitry.

Part Context

This part belongs to the LNA-20 series from L3 Narda-MITEQ, a line of low-noise amplifiers widely used in defense and commercial satellite communications. The series typically offers robust performance across various microwave bands, providing reliable signal conditioning for critical RF infrastructure.

Replacement Considerations

Check for LNA-20 series variants with different frequency ranges or gain levels if the 2-40 GHz band does not fully match the application needs. Consult manufacturer cross-reference guides for equivalent modules with similar SMA packaging and power requirements.
