The ADRF5515 is a dual-channel, integrated RF, front-end, multichip module designed for time division duplexing (TDD) applications. The device operates from 3.3 GHz to 4.0 GHz. The ADRF5515 is configured in dual channels with a cascading, two-stage, LNA and a high power silicon SPDT switch.
In high gain mode, the cascaded two-stage LNA and switch offer a low noise figure of 1.0 dB and a high gain of 33 dB at 3.6 GHz with an output third-order intercept point (OIP3) of 32 dBm (typical). In low gain mode, one stage of the two-stage LNA is in bypass, providing 16 dB of gain at a lower current of 36 mA. In power-down mode, the LNAs are turned off and the device draws 12 mA.
The device comes in an RoHS compliant, compact, 6 mm × 6 mm, 40-lead LFCSP.
