QPL1002 Data Sheet
General Description
The QPL1002 is a wideband cascode low noise amplifier
fabricated on Qorvo’s 0.25um GaN on SiC production
process. This cascode LNA is robust to 5W of input power
with 17dB typical gain and 1.2dB noise figure from 0.03
GHz to 3.0 GHz. The QPL1002 is ideal for wideband
communication applications across defense and
commercial markets.
