LNA-30-01000200-25-20P

Overview

The LNA-30-01000200-25-20P is a low-noise amplifier from the L3 Narda-MITEQ LNA series, designed for VSAT applications. It operates within a frequency range of 1 GHz to 2 GHz and provides a nominal gain of 30 dB. The device delivers a P1dB output power of 20 dBm with a supply current of 275 mA at a voltage of +15 VDC. It features SMA connectors in a module package and maintains an input/output impedance of 50 Ω.

Feature Summary

• Provides high gain amplification suitable for weak signal reception in satellite communication systems.
• Features standard 50 Ω input and output impedance matching for easy integration into RF chains.
• Operates with a single +15 VDC power supply and moderate current consumption.

Applications

• VSAT satellite communication ground station receivers
• L-band radar receiver front ends
• Satellite navigation system signal amplification

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific datasheet revision when ordering, as manufacturer specifications may be updated over time. Confirm that the required operating temperature range aligns with your environmental constraints. Ensure that the +15 VDC supply capability matches your system's power architecture before finalizing procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a 30 dB gain is required within the 1-2 GHz band. Compare against the LNA-20 series if lower noise figures are critical, noting that higher gain models may have different noise performance characteristics. Evaluate the 20 dBm P1dB limit against your maximum expected input signal levels to prevent compression.

Part Context

This model belongs to the LNA series of monolithic microwave integrated circuit (MMIC) based amplifiers manufactured by L3 Narda-MITEQ. These modules are engineered for robust performance in demanding RF environments, specifically targeting the C-band and L-band frequencies used in global satellite communications infrastructure.

Replacement Considerations

The LNA-30-01000200-06-10P is a documented variant within the same product family, offering similar functionality but potentially differing in pinout or specific electrical tolerances. Cross-referencing the mechanical footprint and connector type is essential when considering substitutes.
