The SKY65723-11 is a front-end module (FEM) with an integrated low-noise amplifier (LNA) and pre-filter designed for Global Positioning System/Global Navigation Satellite System/Beidou Navigation Satellite System (GPS/GNSS/BDS) receiver applications. The device provides high linearity, excellent gain, a high 1 dB input compression point (IP1dB), and a superior noise figure (NF).
The pre-filter provides the low in-band insertion loss and integrated notch filtering for excellent rejections of the cellular, PCS, and WLAN frequency bands. The SKY65723-11 uses surface-mount technology (SMT) in the form of a 1.7 x 2.3 mm Multi-Chip Module (MCM) package, which allows for a highly manufacturable and low-cost solution.
An additional filter is incorporated in the SKY65723-11 to improve performance in the presence of a Band 13 blocker.
