Guerrilla RF has announced that it has received volume production orders for its premier Ultra-Low Noise Amplifier (Ultra-LNA) devices with industry-leading Noise Figure (NF), gain and linearity. The GRF2051, along with the higher gain GRF2052, support a wide range of high performance LNA applications including macro base stations, small cells, DAS and other high performance applications requiring the lowest possible NF along with the highest possible input-referenced linearity.

The GRF2051 sets the standard for ultra-low NF and input-referenced linearity over the 1.7-3.8GHz bands, while the GRF2052, provides a higher gain, ultra-low noise figure alternative over the 2.3-4.5GHz bands. Whether used as first stage LNAs, linear drivers or cascaded gain blocks, their simple external matching, adjustable current and flexible Vdd allow these devices to be used in multiple locations within a single design or across platforms. The devices achieve outstanding RF performance and reliability at operating temperatures of up to +105ºC. 

According to Research and Markets, the overall wireless network infrastructure market will witness tremendous growth over the coming years. Growing at a CAGR of over 5%, the market will account for over $104bn in annual spending by the end of 2020.

“Guerrilla RF is pleased to be ramping production of these ultra-low noise amplifiers,” said Alan Ake, Vice President of Applications and Technical Marketing, Guerrilla RF. “These devices showcase our technical capability and allow our customer’s systems to achieve maximum receiver sensitivity and dynamic range. Their flexible application circuits result in a simple and low-cost implementations that allow for optimal efficiency and re-use.”

The Ultra-LNA devices are offered in a 2.0x2.0x0.55mm QFN-12 package, priced at $1.37 each, and sold in 10,000-piece quantities.
