AN11420 NXP GPS LNA - GPS LNA voltage supply via a coax cable coming from the GPS receiver Application note
●Introduction
■GPS LNAs are needed in active antenna applications due to the losses of a long cable between the antenna and the receiver.
■This application note gives practical information how to supply an NXP GPS LNA via a coax cable coming from the GPS receiver. This applies to automotive qualified BGU7004 and BGU7008 since they both have the same architecture. They are AEC-Q100 qualified Low Noise Amplifiers (LNAs) for GPS receiver applications in a plastic leadless 6-pin, extremely small SOT886 package. Both of them require only one external matching inductor and one external decoupling capacitor. They adapt itself to the changing environment resulting from co-habitation of different radio systems in modern cellular handsets. During high jamming power levels, resulting for example from a cellular transmit burst, it temporarily increases its bias current to improve sensitivity. Both of them cover full GNSS L1 band, from 1559 MHz to 1610 MHz and work with a supply voltagefrom 1.5 V to 2.85 V.
■The BGU7004 and BGU7008 performance information is available in their datasheets.
