Low Noise Factor Introduces New InP Cryogenic Low Noise Amplifier from 1.2 to 3.5 GHz


Low Noise Factory Introduces New InP Cryogenic Low Noise Amplifier from 1.2 to 3.5 GHz

Low Noise Factory (LNF) has introduced a cryogenic low noise amplifier (LNA) that exhibits ultra-low noise over the operating frequency range from 1.2 to 3.5 GHz. The LNF-LNC1.2_3.5A is built using LNF’s proprietary InP HEMT technology and has an MMIC design that ensures excellent unit-to-unit variation. It provides a gain of 31 dB with a noise figure of 0.02 dB and has a noise temperature of 1.3 K.

This lightweight LNA does not have a hermetic sealing and therefore, requires operation in a vacuum environment when the temperature reaches below the dewpoint. It requires a DC supply of 1 V and consumes 20 mA of current. This cryogenic amplifier is available in a gold-plated Aluminum module that measures 19.4 x 17.6 x 7.8 mm and has standard SMA (female) connectors for RF ports and a 9-pin Nano-D (female) connector for DC power. The LNA has been tested at 296 K and 5 K. Click here to learn more about this new cryogenic ultra-low noise amplifier from LNF.
