ALM-1812 Datasheet GPS Filter-LNA-Filter Front-End Module

Manufacturer: Avago Technologies (now Broadcom)

General Description

Avago Technologies’ ALM-1812 is a GPS front-end module that combines a high-gain low-noise amplifier (LNA) with GPS FBAR filters.

The LNA uses Avago Technologies’ proprietary GaAs Enhancement-mode pHEMT process to achieve high gain with very low noise figure and high linearity.

Noise figure distribution is very tightly controlled.
