LNA-40-00100800-15-10P

Overview

The LNA-40-00100800-15-10P is a low-noise amplifier from the L3 Narda-MITEQ LNA series, designed for VSAT applications. It operates within a frequency range of 100 MHz to 8 GHz. The device provides a minimum gain of 40 dB with a noise figure of 2.0 dB. It delivers a P1dB output power of +15 dBm and requires a +15 VDC supply voltage. Typical operating current is 250 mA. Input and output impedances are 50 Ω with a VSWR of 2:1. The unit is housed in a module package with SMA connectors.

Feature Summary

• Provides high gain and low noise performance for sensitive signal reception
• Features unconditional stability across various load conditions
• Includes internal voltage regulation for stable power management
• Offers standard 50 Ω impedance matching for easy system integration

Applications

• VSAT satellite communication ground station receive links
• RF and microwave link front-end amplification

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific part number suffix against official L3Harris or Narda-MITEQ documentation to ensure correct configuration. Confirm that the SMA connector type and module packaging match system requirements. Check RoHS compliance status if environmental regulations apply. Ensure supply voltage and current ratings align with available power infrastructure before procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a wide bandwidth covering 100 MHz to 8 GHz is required alongside high gain. Consider the 2.0 dB noise figure for applications demanding high sensitivity. Evaluate the +15 VDC supply requirement against existing power systems. Compare physical dimensions and SMA interface compatibility with adjacent circuitry during design phase.

Part Context

This model belongs to the LNA series by L3 Narda-MITEQ, now part of L3Harris. These amplifiers are engineered for robust performance in harsh environments. The series typically features hermetic sealing options for high reliability. They are widely used in defense, aerospace, and commercial satellite communications where signal integrity is critical.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other models from the LNA-40 series such as LNA-40-00100800-20-15P or LNA-40-00100800-40-20P, provided frequency and gain specifications meet application needs. Verify pinout and connector compatibility before substitution.
