LTE3401LX

Overview

The LTE3401LX is a silicon-germanium carbon (SiGe:C) monolithic microwave integrated circuit (MMIC) Low Noise Amplifier designed for LTE receiver applications. It operates within the frequency range of 617 MHz to 960 MHz and is housed in a compact 6-pin XSON package measuring 1.1 x 0.7 mm. The device integrates a bypass switch functionality, allowing for signal path control. This component serves as a critical front-end element for enhancing receiver sensitivity in wireless communication systems.

Feature Summary

• Integrates high-gain low-noise amplification with an embedded bypass switch for flexible signal routing
• Utilizes SiGe:C technology to ensure reliable performance in RF front-end modules
• Designed specifically for LTE band compatibility covering 617 MHz to 960 MHz

Applications

• LTE receiver front-end modules
• Wireless communication base stations
• Mobile device RF circuits

Procurement Notes

Verify part authenticity through authorized NXP distributors or official channels. Confirm that the specific suffix matches the required package and marking specifications. Check current availability status as manufacturing status may vary. Ensure compliance with RoHS standards if applicable to your supply chain requirements.

Selection Notes

Select this component when designing for LTE bands between 617 MHz and 960 MHz requiring integrated LNA and bypass capabilities. Consider the small 6-XSON footprint for space-constrained layouts. Evaluate system noise figure requirements against the device's typical performance characteristics to ensure adequate receiver sensitivity.

Part Context

This MMIC belongs to NXP's portfolio of RF amplifiers tailored for cellular infrastructure and mobile devices. It complements other passive and active components in complete RF front-end solutions. The integration of the bypass switch reduces external component count compared to discrete LNA designs.
