LNA-30-02000800-32-20P

Overview

The LNA-30-02000800-32-20P is a low-noise amplifier module from the Narda-MITEQ LNA series, manufactured by L3Harris. It operates within a frequency range of 2 GHz to 8 GHz. The device provides a nominal gain of 30 dB and maintains a noise figure of 3.2 dB. It supports an output power level of 20 dBm. The unit requires a 15 VDC supply voltage and utilizes SMA connectors for input and output termination.

Feature Summary

• Provides stable signal amplification across the 2 GHz to 8 GHz frequency band
• Features internal DC voltage regulation for consistent power management
• Maintains unconditional stability under various load conditions
• Offers standard 50 Ohm impedance matching at input and output ports

Applications

• VSAT satellite communication ground station receiver front-ends
• RF and microwave point-to-point link systems
• Satellite navigation receiver front-ends including GPS and GLONASS
• Radar receiver echo signal pre-amplification

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific manufacturer designation, as production may be attributed to either Narda-MITEQ or L3Harris depending on the current corporate structure and document version. Confirm that the SMA connector type matches the system interface requirements. Ensure the 15 VDC supply capability aligns with the available power infrastructure in the target application environment before finalizing procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a wide bandwidth covering 2 GHz to 8 GHz is required alongside moderate noise performance. The 30 dB gain is suitable for general-purpose signal conditioning where high linearity is not the primary constraint. Consider the module form factor for integration into existing RF assemblies. Evaluate thermal dissipation capabilities if operating near the upper temperature limits of -55 °C to +85 °C.

Part Context

This part belongs to the LNA-30 series of low-noise amplifiers designed for robust RF applications. The naming convention indicates a 30 dB gain characteristic. Similar models in the family include variants with different frequency ranges such as the LNA-30-08001800-32-20P (8-18 GHz) and the LNA-30-02002000-42-20P (2-20 GHz), allowing for selection based on specific spectral requirements.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes are not explicitly confirmed in public documentation. Equivalent modules may include the LNA-30-08001800-32-20P for higher frequency needs or the LNA-30-02002000-42-20P for wider bandwidth. Verify pinout compatibility and electrical parameters against datasheets before substitution.
