Part No. Description ALND-WB-0013 Ultra-Low Noise Amplifier on Cut Tape ALND-WB-0013-T Ultra-Low Noise Amplifier on Tape & Reel ALND-WB-0013-EVB Ultra-Low Noise Amplifier EVB The ALND -WB-0013 is an ultra -low noise amplifier (LNA) designed in advanced GaAs E/D - pHEMT process, featuring wideband operation from 1165MHz to 1610MHz. For GNSS, it provides simultaneous, uncompromised performance across all frequency bands of all major constellations including GPS, GLONASS, Beidou, Galileo, and NavIC from 1176 to 1610MHz with a single, simple matching network. The device is housed in an ultra-compact 1.45 x 1.0 mm 6-Lead DFN (Dual Flat No-Lead) package, provides 0.5dB noise figure (GNSS High-Band), and the industry’s highest-class input P1dB and IIP3/IIP2, with adjustable current as low as sub- 2mA for 1.2V to 3.6V operation. ALND -WB-0013 has integrated ESD protection on all pins and requires only one external inductor and capacitor for conventional GNSS bands from 1550 to 1610MHz. ▪ Advanced GaAs E/D-pHEMT Process ▪ GNSS L1/L2/L5/L6 Support (1165-1610MHz) ▪ Low Noise Figure: 0.5~0.7dB (GNSS Full Band) ▪ Power Gain: 15/16dB (High/Low-Band) ▪ High Input P1dB: -6dBm at 1575MHz ▪ Adjustable Current 1.5 ~ 7mA at 1.2 ~ 3.6V ▪ Integrated ESD for 1KV HBM & >2KV CDM ▪ Ultra-Small DFN-6L Package: 1.45mm x 1.0mm ▪ RoHS Compliant | MSL Level 1 ▪ High-Precision GNSS Modules ▪ GNSS for Smart Watches, Wearables ▪ UAVs and Drones ▪ Robotics and Autonomous Driving ▪ Real-Time Kinematic (RTK) ▪ Intelligent Transportation ▪ Precision Land Survey Positioning
