LNA-30-02000400-10-15P

Overview

The LNA-30-02000400-10-15P is a low-noise amplifier from the L3 Narda-MITEQ LNA series, designed for VSAT applications. It operates within a frequency range of 2 GHz to 4 GHz. The device provides a typical gain of 30 dB with a noise figure of 10 dB. It delivers a P1dB output power of 15 dBm. The amplifier requires a 15 V DC supply voltage and draws approximately 225 mA of current. It features SMA connectors and is packaged in a module format suitable for integration into RF systems.

Feature Summary

• Provides high gain amplification for weak RF signals in the L-band
• Designed for stable operation in satellite communication receiving chains
• Features standard 50-ohm input and output impedance matching
• Utilizes a robust module package with SMA connectors for easy integration

Applications

• VSAT satellite communication ground station receivers
• L-band radar signal processing front-ends
• Microwave radio link receiver stages
• Test and measurement equipment signal conditioning

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific revision suffix and connector type against the manufacturer's latest datasheet before ordering. Confirm that the 15V DC supply requirements align with your system design. Ensure thermal management solutions are adequate for the specified operating temperature range. Check for any updated compliance certifications required for your region.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a 30 dB gain is required within the 2-4 GHz band. Consider the 10 dB noise figure impact on overall system sensitivity. Evaluate the 15 dBm output power capability against downstream mixer or filter linearity requirements. Compare power consumption against alternative LNAs if battery life is critical.

Part Context

This part belongs to the LNA-30 series, which generally offers higher gain than the LNA-20 series. It is manufactured by L3Harris Technologies under the Narda-MITEQ brand. The product is categorized as a signal conditioning amplifier for RF and microwave frequencies. It is distinct from lower-gain variants like the LNA-20-02000400-25-20P.

Replacement Considerations

No direct public substitute part numbers are confirmed for this specific model. Engineers should evaluate other L3 Narda-MITEQ LNA-30 series variants or comparable third-party LNAs with similar 2-4 GHz specifications and 30 dB gain.
